If you are planning your Saturday around Canelo Álvarez and Christian Mbilli, check the calendar before the clock. The event is listed for Saturday, October 31, 2026 in Riyadh—not Friday, October 30.
US viewing destination: DAZN. Its US event FAQ lists prelims at 9 a.m. ET, the PPV broadcast at 12:30 p.m. ET and main-event ring walks at 4 p.m. ET. Treat the ring-walk listing as an estimate and recheck the event page. Another official source, the WBC, lists a different US broadcast time, so an “exact” universally confirmed ring-walk claim would be misleading.
The DAZN-listed US schedule
| Part of the event | Eastern time | Pacific time |
|---|---|---|
| Prelims | 9:00 a.m. | 6:00 a.m. |
| PPV broadcast | 12:30 p.m. | 9:30 a.m. |
| Main-event ring walks, listed estimate | 4:00 p.m. | 1:00 p.m. |
These times come from DAZN’s US event FAQ, checked October 30. The prelims, the paid broadcast and the main event are separate start points. A reminder for one is not automatically a reminder for the others.
Why the timing needs another check
The WBC’s viewing page lists 8 p.m. ET for the United States. That does not agree with DAZN’s US FAQ. This guide prioritizes the broadcaster’s US listing for its schedule table while making the conflict visible.
Before paying or setting your final reminder, open the event inside the DAZN account you will use and check the latest local listing. Ring walks can also shift with the length of earlier bouts. If a page changes, a screenshot of an earlier timetable does not make the old time current.
What the published card includes
DAZN’s FAQ lists Canelo Álvarez–Christian Mbilli at the top of the card, followed by Jaime Munguia–Nikita Zon, Rafael Espinoza–Ricardo Blandon and Raymundo Rojas–Reito Tsutsumi on its main-card list. Its prelims list includes David Picasso–Carl Martin and four further bouts. Card order and participants can change.
For the championship context, the WBC identifies the main event as a fight for its super middleweight world title. Use the event’s current card for the latest running order rather than assuming the last-listed undercard bout must finish at a particular minute.
Check what your purchase actually includes
Open the event using your existing account before making a second purchase. Check whether your plan includes the fight, requires a separate PPV payment, or offers a different event package. Confirm the total price, any subscription attached to the purchase and the cancellation terms shown at checkout.
This guide does not quote a universal US price or promise that every subscription includes access. The package shown to your account is the place to verify those terms. A free trial for a service should not be assumed to mean a free PPV event.
Set up the stream before the main event
Sign in on the screen you actually want to use. Update the official app if needed, check sound and picture, and make sure you can find the event. If casting, test the same device combination you plan to use during the fight.
Do this early enough to solve an account or connection problem without missing the action. Keep the official support route available. Avoid entering payment details on a look-alike streaming page found in comments or unsolicited messages.
A short watch-day checklist
- Confirm that your calendar says October 31.
- Recheck the latest DAZN US event listing and your local time zone.
- Confirm the access included with your account or purchase.
- Test the official app on your chosen television or device.
- Allow extra time around the listed ring walks.
Questions US viewers are asking
Is the fight tonight, October 30?
The official sources reviewed list Saturday, October 31.
Is 4 p.m. ET an exact guaranteed first bell?
No. It is DAZN’s listed ring-walk time, not a guarantee of the first bell. The conflicting WBC listing is another reason to recheck.
Can I assume my normal subscription includes it?
No. Confirm the event entitlement and any PPV charge in your own account.
