Al Haymon’s Premier Boxing Champions have not been particularly active in recent years, especially following the closure of Showtime Sports in 2023. Since their deal with Amazon’s Prime Video, there has been four pay-per-view events in 2024 and one non-PPV in October. The lack of activity has been widely discussed but sources have revealed to Dan Rafael at Fight Freaks Unite that the activity looks set to increase in 2025 with plans for the next Tim Tszyu fight.

Tim Tszyu Next Fight: PBC Reveals Plans for Comeback Bout

PBC Non PPV Schedule

PBC have two big events in the first part of 2025, with David Benavidez and David Morrell colliding on February 1 and Gervonta Davis and Lamont Roach Jr. meeting in March. The plans for more non-PPV cards are in the works, which will Keith Thurman face Brock Jarvis on March 12. This fight will be PPV in Australia but there are discussions for it to stream on Prime Video or be shown on the PBC YouTube channel as they have the U.S. rights.

Unified super welterweight world champion Sebastian Fundora will face Chordale Booker on March 22 or 29. Rafael also reveals a Fundora vs. Spence fight is a possibility for the summer should “The Towering Inferno” defeat Booker. The source also reveals that Fundora could possibly face former undisputed super welterweight titlist Jermell Charlo.

In other fight news from PBC, Elijah Garcia will face Terrell Gausha on the Fundora-Booker undercard. Garcia will be eager to return to form after his loss to Kyrone Davis. Garcia-Gausha was due to headline a non-PPV Prime Video card on Feb. 15 but that card was ultimately shelved.

Tim Tszyu Next Fight

Rafael further reveals that the plan for Tim Tszyu (24-2, 17 KOs) is for him to return in April and face Joey Spencer (19-1, 11 KOs) in Australia live on Prime Video. He was last seen, being blown away in three rounds by Bakhram Murtazaliev, which followed his bloody defeat to Fundora.

Spencer suffered his only professional loss against Jesus Ramos but has bounced back with three straight victories. If Thurman and Tszyu come through their fights, they are pencilled in to face each other in the summer in either the United States or Australia on a non-PPV in the U.S.

It remains to be seen what 2025 will bring for the PBC stable but many eyes will be on Tim Tszyu and if he can bounce back.
