Fubo and DAZN have announced a multi-year partnership to distribute each other’s linear channels in the U.S.

As of today, the sports-led live TV streaming service Fubo has added to its lineup DAZN1, featuring live fights and on-demand content. It can be accessed via a stand-alone subscription or as an add-on to Fubo’s virtual MVPD product. DAZN is bringing to its platform Fubo Sports, a FAST channel featuring 400 live sporting events annually as well as sports documentaries and movies. As part of the alliance, Fubo can also offer its customers DAZN’s live pay-per-view events.

“Fubo and DAZN’s partnership delivers more premium sports to fans, wherever they choose to watch,” said David Gandler, co-founder and CEO of Fubo. “Adding DAZN’s unmatched fight content enhances our sports entertainment lineup while offering customers greater flexibility. We’re also excited to expand our FAST channel, Fubo Sports, through DAZN and explore further opportunities with Shay and his team.”

Shay Segev, DAZN Group CEO, added: “Our deal with Fubo enables DAZN to increase access to top-tier sports content for fans in the U.S. and Canada, as we continue to provide the ultimate sports entertainment experience. Fubo’s viewers can now watch the world’s leading fight talent compete in unmissable events as part of a new DAZN premium fight package. Meanwhile, the launch of Fubo Sports on the DAZN platform will be an exciting addition to our ever-expanding portfolio of premium sports content.”
