The highly anticipated debut four-fight PBC Pay-Per-View, which is streaming on Prime Video, features a main event featuring two-time world champion Keith "One Time" Thurman challenging reigning world champion Tim Tszyu. In the co-main event, which takes place on Saturday, March 30 from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, 140-pound world champion Rolando "Rolly" Romero and Mexican sensation Isaac "Pitbull" Cruz square off.
Along with all-action super welterweight phenom Sebastian "The Towering Inferno," the pay-per-view will include a defense of the WBA Middleweight World Champion Erislandy "The American Dream" Lara against mandatory opponent Michael Zerafa, ranked No. 1 in the rankings. In the first pay-per-view, Fundora will square up against swift-moving opponent Serhii Bohachuk for the vacant WBC Super Welterweight World Championship.
With the companies' announcement of a historic, multiyear rights agreement in December, the card represents the first event that PBC Pay-Per-View will be made available through Prime Video. Fans will still be able to watch the program on standard cable and satellite channels in addition to being able to purchase the PPV on Prime Video, independent of Prime membership.
With Tim Tszyu being the first fighter of Australian descent to headline a pay-per-view event in the United States, this fight is more than simply a match. There's more to look forward to that night than just the main attraction.
“I know what he’s done, but his time has come, this is a different era. This is the Tim Tszyu era. I don’t plan on just beating Thurman, but I plan on putting a spectacle that he’s never seen. I want those big names – (Errol) Spence and (Terence) Crawford," said Tszyu in media reports during their first press conference.
AXS.com is currently selling tickets for the live event, which is being sponsored by TGB Promotions. No Limit Boxing is promoting the main event together.
