Dana White first teased Zuffa Boxing back in 2017, and the brand officially launched in September 2025 when TKO promoted the Canelo Álvarez vs. Terence Crawford superfight. The January 23 card represents the first event under the promotion's long-term Paramount+ agreement, which guarantees 12 cards in 2026.
Per industry reports, undefeated Irish prospect Callum Walsh (15-0) headlines against Carlos Ocampo, while Serhii Bohachuk faces former WBA welterweight titleholder Radzhab Butaev in the co-main event.
"I'm excited to bring great boxing events to a global audience," White said. "There are millions of boxing fans that will now be able to watch competitive fights with up-and-coming boxers as well as the biggest stars in the sport."
Zuffa Boxing is a joint venture between TKO and Saudi-based Sela, with plans to build a 200-fighter roster operating under a UFC-style promotional model.
