The moment before a fight is pure nerve-wracking: lights dimming, the rumble of the entrance music, the echo of the crowd. Everything points to an epic night… until the signal demands a pay-per-view that exceeds your budget. This frustration is shared by thousands of fans around the world, and yet there is a solution: free streaming platforms that broadcast boxing, MMA, and kickboxing legally, funded solely by brief ad breaks. Instead of wandering through poor-quality pirated links, you can enjoy the fight in high definition, with dynamic stats and full playback control, directly from your smartphone, tablet, or Smart TV.

The AVOD model explained with gloves on

Unlike traditional subscription services (SVOD), AVOD is funded by advertising. The platform provides commercial space to brands interested in a passionate and targeted audience; part of this revenue covers broadcasting rights and part compensates promoters and athletes. Viewers, on the other hand, receive live or on-demand content without paying a single cent.

And the quality? Adaptive bitrate technology detects your bandwidth and adjusts the resolution in real time: 480p if you're using mobile data, 1080p or 4K if you're on Wi-Fi. This way, you avoid the dreaded buffering when the fight heats up. Additionally, distributed servers (CDN) reduce latency, allowing you to react almost at the same time as the audience in the arena.
