Cable network Showtime on Tuesday announced that the Oct. 24 welterweight title fight between champion Kell Brook and Diego Chavez, which is being held in England, will be televised live in the U.S.
The fight will be held inside Motorpoint Arena in Sheffield and will air on Showtime starting at 5:45 p.m. ET/2:45 p.m. PT. An encore presentation of the battle will be shown later that evening at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.
Brook (35-0, 24 KOs), widely considered among the sport’s best pound-for-pound, is slated to make the third defense of the IBF 147-pound crown that he captured by dominating Shawn Porter last August.
