Fresh from his highlight reel knockout win at X Series 12, Fox The G is thrown in at the deep end in his first headline contest, being matched against TWO opponents.

The X Series has always been pioneering and next month’s Outnumbered Match is the latest in a growing list of ground-breaking contests delivered, live on DAZN.

Fox The G will face Most Evil Tag Team, comprised of Most Wanted and Evil Hero, who are able to tag in and out of the ring, but Fox will be in there on his own, fighting against the odds.

And confirmed for the undercard at Worldwide Stages, are the opening two bouts in the MFB Lightweight interim title tournament.

Joey Knight takes on Baby Hulk, in quarter final No1, before LilCraCra tackles Yuddy Gang in quarter final No2.

The X Series is pitting eight of the leading lightweights in the crossover boxing scene in a tournament to crown an interim champion while MFB title holder Deen The Great recovers from injury.

Yet more mouth-watering contests will be announced in due course, that will make X Series 13 the most stacked US card seen so far.

Fox The G said: “On March 23 in Nashville, I’ll be outnumbered, my back will be against the wall and the odds are stacked against me, but I love it!

“People were writing me off before X Series 12 in Leeds, saying I had no chance, but look how I proved them all wrong – and I’ll do it again next month.

“Two opponents, three, four….it doesn’t matter because I’m coming out swinging and anyone standing in my way is getting knocked out.”

Mams Taylor, Co-President of Misfits Boxing, said: “X Series 13 is going to be a Stateside spectacular!

“Fox The G is red-hot right now after his brutal KO at X Series 12 and he wants all the smoke – so we’re putting him in against two opponents for our first ever Outnumbered Match.

“And I am so excited to kick-off the MFB Lightweight tournament with two quarter-final humdingers, as we begin our search for an interim champ.

“But watch this space because we still have a number of contests to announce that the Misfits fans will absolutely love!”

Kalle Sauerland, Co-President of Misfits Boxing, said: “Misfits Boxing is all about pushing the boundaries and we’ve done it again.

“We’ve had Mystery Opponents, Tag Team matches, Survivor Tag and now, an Outnumbered Match.  

“It’s brilliant, it’s chaotic and it’s never been done before, so it makes X Series 13 in Nashville on March 23, absolutely must-see television.”

“With this ground-breaking main event X Series continues to be on its own when it comes to creativity and innovation,” said Alfie Sharman, VP, DAZN. 

“X Series is all about entertainment-and 18 months from inception it has delivered this fight on fight in spades. March 23 will be another unmissable event. Tune in live and exclusive, only on DAZN.”

DAZN to host Countdown Show followed by the main card live around the world, only on DAZN PPV

 

The biggest night ever seen in crossover boxing will have a heavyweight talent team to match, with stars from the world of sport, music and television all forming a part of DAZN’s exclusive worldwide coverage.

 

A sold-out AO Arena in Manchester plays host to a historic night of action as KSI clashes with Tommy Fury and Logan Paul goes into battle against Dillon Danis, exclusively live on DAZN PPV.

 

And DAZN’s coverage will deliver a knockout punch from the first bell until the last with several big-names involved, including Ariel Helwani, Chris Eubank Junior and Bugzy Malone, all taking to the mic, across two not-to-be-missed shows.

 

Big Zuu will be your larger-than-life host for the DAZN Boxing Countdown Show, which will be broadcast live on DAZN and Youtube in the hours leading up to the unmissable boxing double-header.

 

Zuu will be joined by co-host and reporter Roman Kemp, who will be bringing viewers a host of interviews with celebrities in attendance at this historic evening of crossover boxing action.

 

Zuhair Hassan, better known as Big Zuu, is an award-winning British chef, television personality and musician. A born-and-bred Londoner, Zuu began his career as a grime MC and BBC radio host, and has since become a regular face of the MF&DAZN X Series.

 

Roman Kemp, meanwhile, is one of the UK’s most promising broadcasters, hosting the Capital radio breakfast show, presenting the One Show and having hosted countless star-studded events including the TV Baftas and BRIT Award Red Carpet.

 

Zuu and Roman will be joined by no less than three studio guests on this unmissable Countdown Show.

 

The first is British rap icon, actor and entrepreneur Bugzy Malone, an avid boxer and fan of the sport since childhood. X Series fans will vividly remember Bugzy’s jaw-dropping ring walk with KSI at 007 in May, when ‘The Nightmare’ fought Joe Fournier in front of a packed Wembley Arena.

 

Joining Bugzy is Youtube star and crossover boxer Deji Olatunji who will share with fans a unique insight into how his brother, KSI, has been training for the biggest fight of his career to date.

 

Mike Majlak - best-selling author, YouTube star and co-host of the Impaulsive podcast with Logan Paul – will also make the journey to Manchester, taking viewers backstage inside the locker rooms of the biggest stars set to step foot in the ring on the night.

 

Completing the talent team for DAZN’s biggest Countdown show to date is Nada, host and presenter on Apple Music, and sideline reporter at the recent Sideman charity football match. Nada will be capturing all the red carpet arrivals on the night, and bringing viewers exclusive interviews from behind the scenes.

 

Kicking off at 7pm, the main DAZN PPV card will feature DAZN anchor and X Series fan favourite, Ade Oladipo taking the reins alongside two well-known names, both of whom have enjoyed recent victories inside the ring. 

 

Middleweight boxing star Chris Eubank Junior looks to provide expert analysis on the packed fight card, joining the DAZN broadcast fresh from gaining revenge over Liam Smith in their mammoth Manchester clash. Sparring partner to KSI and recent X Series headliner Idris Virgo will complete the pundit duo on the night, analyzing all the action as this huge night unfolds.

 

Meanwhile, jetting in from the United States will be combat sports legend Ariel Helwani, the star and host of the wildly popular MMA Show. Helwani will be DAZN’s in-ring interviewer, bringing fans those iconic first interviews with fighters, just moments after their bouts end. Helwani will also join the commentary team for key fights during the card.

 

And leading that commentary team will be Todd Grisham, the voice of the X Series, who will once again guide viewers on DAZN PPV through all the action. He will be joined on co-comms by Jonathan “The Coach” Coachman, as the pair reunite to form one of the most respected commentary teams in combat sports entertainment.

 

Rounding out the DAZN PPV on-air talent team is Olivia Buzaglo, an exciting young sports news presenter and football host, who has recently made a statement in the world of combat sports, joining DAZN’s boxing and MMA on-air broadcast teams.

Logan Paul and Dillon Danis will meet head-on as part of the double main event at an extra special X Series event in Manchester, live and exclusive on DAZN.

 

 

The AO Arena plays host to a colossal night of crossover boxing on Saturday, October 14 with confirmation of KSI’s monstrous clash with Tommy Fury creating a frenzy among fight fans.

 

But the headline-grabbing news that Paul is to fight Danis, on the other side of the double main event, will take the excitement levels to new heights.

 

Worldwide superstar Paul, who fought Floyd Mayweather in 2021, has made a huge impact in WWE but will return to the boxing ring this autumn to take on MMA bad boy Danis on The Prime Card in Manchester.

 

There is no love lost between the warring rivals and so the build-up promises to be tense, and the fight is guaranteed to deliver drama by the bucket load.

 

Logan Paul said: “Almost two years after fighting the greatest boxer of all time, I am so pumped to return to the boxing ring on October 14, for this monster Misfits show.

 

"Manchester, I hope you are ready for a night you will never forget, because The Prime Card is delivering in a big way, with KSI and I on either side of a double main event.

 

"The world has seen the energy, athleticism and showmanship I've brought to WWE, but this October I plan on reminding everyone that I can bring it to boxing too."

 

Dillon Danis said: "I couldn't care less what Logan Paul has done in the WWE, because when he is in the boxing ring, he is in a completely different world.  It's a world of pain, a world where he doesn't have control and it's my world, not his.  On October 14, in Manchester, Logan Paul is getting beat down.”

 

Mams Taylor, Co-President of Misfits Boxing said: “After we announced that KSI would be taking on the toughest challenge in crossover boxing, by facing Tommy Fury, I told you to watch this space – and now you know why!  The Prime Card is bringing you, the fans, a double main event the likes of which has never been seen before.  Having KSI against Fury, and Logan Paul against Dillon Danis, on the same card is truly incredible, it’s history in the making and I cannot wait until October 14.”

 

Kalle Sauerland, Co-President of Misfits Boxing said: “What was already the biggest night ever in crossover boxing, has just got even bigger with this announcement!  If KSI against Tommy Fury wasn’t huge enough, then the X Series is also bringing you a massive showdown between Logan Paul and Dillon Dannis – all on the same sensational evening in Manchester.  This is going to be a night that makes history.”

 

“We are delighted to have KSI and Logan Paul fighting again on the same card-four years on from their historic fight live on DAZN,” said Joe Markowski, CEO of DAZN North America. “What a night this promises be for cross-over boxing fans worldwide with four huge names in the space creating history. Do not miss this night of toe-to-toe action. Watch it live worldwide on DAZN and DAZN PPV."
