LONDON, 28 July 2026 – DAZN has agreed a new partnership with FightStar Championship, further strengthening its global combat sports offering with one of the United Kingdom’s leading mixed martial arts promotions.
Under the agreement, FSC events will be available free to view worldwide on DAZN, giving fans access to some of the most exciting mixed martial arts action in the United Kingdom.
The partnership begins with FSC 37 at Indigo at The O2 in London on Sunday, 23 August 2026. The event will be streamed live and free to view on DAZN from 7pm BST.
FSC 37 features three title fights and the semi-finals of the promotion’s £25,000 featherweight tournament.
The main event is a welterweight championship bout between Nathan ‘Mr. Bag & Tag’ Jones (17-12) and Tom Mullen (11-2). Jones is one of the most experienced names on the British circuit, while Mullen enters on a seven-fight winning streak.
In the co-main event, former Ultimate Fighting Championship light heavyweight Ihor ‘The Duelist’ Potieria (20-8) faces Cally Gibrainn de Oliveira ‘Juggernaut’ (6-2) for the light heavyweight title. Potieria brings significant international experience and notable victories to the contest.
The third championship bout sees the United Kingdom’s top-ranked flyweight, Muhidin ‘The Captain’ Abubakar (12-1), face Brazil’s Ronaldo ‘Carrasco’ Oliveira (11-5-1). The matchup pits one of Britain’s leading talents against a dangerous submission specialist.
FSC 37 will also feature the semi-finals of the promotion’s featherweight tournament, with four elite athletes competing for a place in the final and the chance to claim the £25,000 prize.
Coverage will be hosted by mixed martial arts legend Paul ‘Semtex’ Daley alongside presenter Snoochie Shy.
