Matchroom Boxing Announces

Date For Monte-Carlo VI Showdown!

(October 6th) One of the most prestigious dates on the calendar has officially been confirmed as Matchroom Boxing look forward to returning to the Principality of Monaco for the Monte-Carlo Showdown VI on Saturday, December 6 - in partnership with Société des Bains de Mer and Casino de Monte-Carlo.

 

Streamed live around the world on DAZN, another blockbuster, festive fixture awaits at Sporting Monte-Carlo’s exquisite Salle Des Étoiles.

 

The exciting full card – which will see World Title fights and household names alike – will be confirmed in due course.

 

Last year, former unified World Super-Bantamweight king Murodjon ‘MJ’ Akhmadaliev stole the show when he defeated Ricardo Espinoza Franco to then capture the WBA Interim Super-Bantamweight World Championship and set-up the Uzbek’s recent Undisputed showdown with Naoya Inoue.

 

Brazil’s unbeaten Beatriz Ferreira shone too when she successfully defended her IBF Lightweight World Title against France’s seasoned Licia Boudersa, whilst Leonardo Mosquea defeated Britain’s Chev Clarke for the European Cruiserweight Championship. Maxi Hughes, meanwhile, prevailed in a pulsating battle with Ireland’s Gary Cully.

 

Matchroom Sport chairman Eddie Hearn said: “This really is a special event for Matchroom Boxing – and this year you will see the best card we have ever staged in the Principality.

 

“Monte-Carlo oozes with class and, over the years, we have matched it by delivering some truly memorable Fight Nights showcasing some of the biggest and best talent in the sport.

 

“Saturday, December 6, promises to match it once more with another unmissable evening. Get your tickets – and be ready to look sharp in your tuxedo too.”

 

Official early bird ticket packages, for two people, are on-sale today, starting from £1400. That includes a two-night stay at the 5-star Hotel Hermitage, Monte-Carlo (Friday 5th - Sunday 7th December, 2025), with guaranteed access to the Weigh-In, a meet and greet with promoter Eddie Hearn, a Fight Night poster exclusively signed by the Main Event fighters, and two reserved floor Fight Night tickets.

 

Please note: flights and ground transportation are not included within this package and must be purchased separately.

About Matchroom Boxing

After the success of snooker in the 1980s, Matchroom Sport moved into boxing with two small hall shows followed by Frank Bruno v Joe Bugner at Tottenham Hotspur’s ground – the biggest boxing event of 1987. That launched the company into the boxing big-time, a position it has maintained ever since.

 

Through the 1990s Matchroom Sport’s boxing roster featured many of the biggest names in the sport including Lennox Lewis, Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank, Steve Collins and Naseem Hamed, all in world title fights and it continues to work with some of the biggest names in UK boxing including Audley Harrison, the 2000 Olympic Super-Heavyweight gold medalist.

 

Over the years, Matchroom Sport has built up long-standing relationships with broadcasters around the world and with the advent of the Prizefighter phenomenon, the company’s boxing division has never been in a stronger position.

 

From fantastic six round scraps between the sport’s journeymen, up to multi-million-dollar World Championship contests featuring the above fighters, the Pro Box series has it all. Each show is packed with the very best in boxing action in a series that encompasses almost 25 years of Matchroom Sport’s commitment to bringing the highest quality to the global television market.
