There is no major televised boxing card tonight, Monday 21 September, but UK fans have a very good Saturday coming up.
Two British shows go head-to-head on 26 September. Liam Davies defends his European featherweight title against Nathaniel Collins in Birmingham, while Johnny Fisher returns against Michael Pirotton at the Copper Box Arena in London. The awkward bit? They are on different channels.
Davies vs Collins is live on DAZN. Fisher vs Pirotton is on Sky Sports. Both broadcasts get going around 7pm, so anyone wanting to watch the two main events may need a little remote-control work later in the evening.
For everything coming after this weekend, our boxing schedule 2026 tracks the major confirmed fights, dates and UK broadcasters.
Is There Boxing on Tonight?
There is no major UK televised boxing event tonight, Monday 21 September.
The next big night is Saturday 26 September, when two separate cards take place in Birmingham and London.
For UK viewers, the main events are:
- Liam Davies vs Nathaniel Collins, BP Pulse Live, Birmingham, live on DAZN
- Johnny Fisher vs Michael Pirotton, Copper Box Arena, London, live on Sky Sports
Davies and Collins fight for the European featherweight title. Fisher vs Pirotton is a 10-round heavyweight contest and Fisher’s first main event since signing with Zuffa Boxing.
There is plenty happening underneath both.
Liam Davies vs Nathaniel Collins
This is probably the better pure boxing match of the two British headliners.
Davies enters at 18-1 after moving up from super-bantamweight and establishing himself at featherweight. His last outing brought a unanimous-decision win over Francesco Grandelli in March, earning him the European title.
Collins is coming off the first defeat of his professional career.
He lost a split decision to Cristobal Lorente in April after their first meeting had finished as a draw. It was a frustrating result, but there has been no soft rebuilding fight afterwards. Collins has gone straight back in at a high level.
That makes this interesting.
Davies is the man carrying the belt and comes in with momentum. Collins, though, knows him well. The pair have apparently shared plenty of rounds in sparring over the years, something both men acknowledged when the fight was announced.
There should not be too much mystery between them by the time the first bell goes.
What Time Is Davies vs Collins in the UK?
Liam Davies vs Nathaniel Collins takes place on Saturday 26 September at BP Pulse Live in Birmingham.
Current listings have the televised card beginning at approximately 7pm BST, with the main event expected later in the evening. Exact ring walks remain dependent on how long the undercard takes.
The main details are:
- Date: Saturday 26 September
- Venue: BP Pulse Live, Birmingham
- UK coverage: DAZN
- Card start: Around 7pm BST
- Expected main event: Around 10pm to 11pm BST
- Title: European featherweight championship
I would not tune in at 10.30pm assuming the ring walks are guaranteed.
Boxing rarely works that neatly. One early knockout can pull everything forward, while a string of long fights can have the main event slipping later.
Davies vs Collins Undercard
There is quite a bit worth watching before the headline fight.
Nathan Heaney has confirmed that his rematch with Gerome Warburton will be the final fight of his professional career.
Warburton beat Heaney on points when they met in March, so the Stoke favourite gets one final chance to settle that score before walking away.
Olympian Luke McCormack also faces Kay Prospere, while Nelson Birchall continues his rise at featherweight.
The main fights currently include:
- Liam Davies vs Nathaniel Collins
- Nathan Heaney vs Gerome Warburton
- Luke McCormack vs Kay Prospere
- Nelson Birchall vs Lewis Morris
- Bradley Goldsmith vs Amir Abubaker
- Lasha Guruli vs Hughie Wilson
It is a proper domestic card rather than a headline fight sitting above six obvious mismatches.
Johnny Fisher Returns on Sky Sports
At almost exactly the same time, Johnny Fisher will be making the walk at the Copper Box.
Fisher faces Belgium’s Michael Pirotton over 10 rounds in the main event of Zuffa Boxing 11.
For Fisher, this feels like something of a reset.
His unbeaten record disappeared against David Allen in their May 2025 rematch, a result that forced some difficult questions after the controversial first fight between them.
Fisher did return with a stoppage win over Ivan Balaz in December. Now he begins the next phase of his career under Zuffa Boxing with a London headline slot and Sky Sports behind him.
Pirotton is 12-2 with six stoppage victories.
He is not arriving with the profile of Allen, but both of his professional defeats came against unbeaten opposition. This is the biggest platform of his career by some distance.
What Time Is Fisher vs Pirotton?
Sky Sports has been much more specific with the schedule for this one.
Preliminary fights begin through Sky’s digital platforms at 5pm BST.
The main television coverage starts at 7pm, with Fisher and Pirotton currently expected to make their ring walks between 9.45pm and 10.15pm.
So:
- Date: Saturday 26 September
- Venue: Copper Box Arena, London
- Prelims: 5pm BST
- Sky Sports coverage: 7pm BST
- Expected ring walks: 9.45pm to 10.15pm
- Fight distance: 10 rounds
- UK broadcaster: Sky Sports
Those ring-walk times are still approximate, but there is far more certainty here than we often get several days before a boxing event.
Fisher vs Pirotton Undercard
Craig Richards against Radivoje Kalajdzic is probably the pick of the supporting fights.
Richards has already operated around world level and fought Dmitry Bivol back in 2021. Kalajdzic has plenty of experience of his own and gives Richards the kind of fight where a convincing victory could move him back towards bigger opportunities.
Louis Greene vs Lee Cutler also looks competitive.
The main card currently features:
- Johnny Fisher vs Michael Pirotton
- Craig Richards vs Radivoje Kalajdzic
- Louis Greene vs Lee Cutler
- Cesar Mateo Tapia vs Leo Ruiz
- Leon Hughes vs Michael Stephenson
- Kayla Allen vs Lisa Mronsz
The full show is Zuffa Boxing’s latest UK card and is being staged entirely at the Copper Box Arena.
Which Boxing Should You Watch on Saturday?
If I had to pick one fight purely on the matchup, Davies vs Collins interests me more.
There is more at stake competitively and both men are operating around the same level. Collins is coming off a defeat, but that record does not tell the whole story. He lost a split decision in a European title fight and has gone straight into another tough one.
Fisher vs Pirotton is different.
The intrigue there is Fisher himself. We know he can punch. What we are still finding out is how far he can realistically go at heavyweight after the Allen fights exposed some weaknesses.
Fortunately, the timings may allow viewers to catch large chunks of both cards.
Fisher’s ring walks are expected around 10pm. Davies vs Collins is likely to land somewhere around the same part of the evening, so this may eventually become a case of watching whichever undercard develops more quickly.
Where Can You Watch Boxing This Weekend in the UK?
This weekend is a good example of why boxing TV rights can be annoying.
There is no single subscription that gives you every major show.
DAZN has Liam Davies vs Nathaniel Collins.
Sky Sports has Johnny Fisher vs Michael Pirotton.
That split continues throughout the year depending on the promoter and event. DAZN currently carries Queensberry shows, while Sky has become the UK home for Zuffa Boxing cards such as Fisher vs Pirotton.
Always check the individual card rather than assuming a fight will be available through the same broadcaster as the previous weekend.
Boxing Tonight Betting Markets
The fight-winner market is only the starting point on a major boxing card.
Depending on the bout, markets can also include:
- Method of victory
- Total rounds
- Fight to go the distance
- Round betting
- Winning method and round
- Knockdowns
A 12-round title fight such as Davies vs Collins naturally creates a different betting picture from a 10-round heavyweight contest.
If either fight reaches the final bell, the judges score each round independently under boxing’s 10-point must system. Our guide to how boxing scoring works explains how 10-9, 10-8 and other scorecards are reached.

Odds and available markets can change before fight night.
What Boxing Is On After This Weekend?
The schedule does not slow down for long.
Ben Whittaker returns on Saturday 3 October against Conor Wallace in Birmingham.
That one matters because it is an IBF light-heavyweight final eliminator. Whittaker is no longer fighting simply to build his record. Beat Wallace and he moves right into the world-title picture.
Our Ben Whittaker next fight guide has the full breakdown ahead of that card.
October then gets considerably bigger.
Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley are due to meet again on 17 October, Dalton Smith faces Alberto Puello on 24 October, and Canelo Alvarez is scheduled to return against Christian Mbilli on 31 October.
There is plenty coming.
Your Boxing Schedule This Weekend
For British boxing fans, Saturday is really about choosing between Birmingham and London.
Davies vs Collins has the European title, a genuinely close domestic matchup and several good fights underneath it.
Fisher vs Pirotton has the heavier names, a London crowd and the curiosity surrounding Fisher’s next chapter. Both broadcasts begin around 7pm.
If the current running orders hold, Fisher should be walking at roughly 10pm, with Davies and Collins expected in a similar late-evening window. Not a bad problem to have.
