The stacked lineup includes seven world championship fights across eight live boxing telecasts over an eight-week span.

Also announced today, SHOWTIME and Premier Boxing Champions will present the rematch between WBC Light Heavyweight Champion 阿多尼斯史蒂文森 和 安杰伊Fonfara 上 星期六, 六月 3. This bout is an encore of a 2014 action-packed fight in which Stevenson edged Fonfara to defend his 175-pound crown.

 

The SHOWTIME boxing lineup also includes two significant welterweight bouts with world title implications: 其他叶贝 VS. 肖恩·波特 (四月 22) 和 凯尔布鲁克 VS. 埃罗尔·斯彭斯JR. (五月 27).

上 星期六, 五月 20, SHOWTIME will present a unique twin-bill of world championship fights. 第一, boxing’s hottest young star, newly minted world champion Gervonta戴维斯, will make his first world title defense against Liam Walsh 从伦敦. 那天晚上, featherweight world champion 加里·拉塞尔JR. 和前世界冠军 安德烈Dirrell will be featured in separate bouts. Start times for both live telecasts are to be determined.

 

在所有, SHOWTIME Sports will present one live SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL telecast, one live 的ShoBox: 新一代 电视节目, and five SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecasts, all free to network subscribers. 更多, SHOWTIME is in the early stages of planning for the return of four-division world champion 阿德里安Broner and undefeated star 米奇·加西亚 in separate events this summer.

 

The spring lineup complements the network’s robust 2017 拳击时间表. 在第一 10 weeks of the year, SHOWTIME Sports presented eight world championship fights, including two world title unification bouts (Jack vs. DeGale and Thurman vs. 加西亚, SHOWTIME Boxing on CBS), two world title rematches (弗兰普顿VS. Santa Cruz II and Linares vs. Crolla II), the live-stream of the first-ever boxing event on Twitter (Broner VS. 格拉纳多斯), the resurgence of women’s boxing (Serrano vs. 里瓦斯) and the first women’s boxing main event in premium television history (盾VS. Szabados).

 

“SHOWTIME continues its unrivaled commitment to the sport. There simply is no other network in boxing delivering world-class events on a consistent basis,“斯蒂芬·埃斯皮诺萨说, 执行副总裁 & 总经理, SHOWTIME体育.

 

“Our 2017 schedule already includes some 17 live boxing telecasts, 15 世界冠军争夺战, with the top-rated fighters squaring off in boxing’s deepest weight divisions. We continue to break the glass ceiling on women’s boxing, deliver the biggest bouts from overseas and see champions take on champions to unify divisions. We are proud to be re-shaping the boxing landscape both in and out of the ring.”
