Mason vs. Cordina Headlines New DAZN-TNT Sports Monthly Boxing Series

Abdullah Mason’s first WBO lightweight title defense may come against Joe Cordina, and it could mark a significant new chapter for boxing broadcasting. The 21-year-old phenom (20-0, 17 KO) claimed his belt in a thrilling war with Sam Noakes last November. Cordina (19-1, 9 KO) represents a stern test—a seasoned former titlist looking to prove his chin holds up twelve years into a rugged career. While Top Rank and Matchroom have yet to make the July 4 bout official, the stakes extend well beyond the ring. That date kicks off a new media partnership between DAZN and TNT Sports, promising a monthly slate of high-profile events. The collaboration aims to amplify fight week through TNT Sports’ portfolio, including Bleacher Report and House of Highlights. Beyond the live main card, truTV will air a steady stream of shoulder programming, turning weigh-ins and press conferences into appointment viewing. For fans, it’s a deeper dive into the drama surrounding the punches. For Mason, it’s a chance to headline a new era with the bright lights brighter than ever. Photo credit: The Ring Magazine
