Rodriguez vs Rungvisai live stream: time and how to watch boxing online from anywhere

One of boxing's brightest talents steps up for his first title defence on Saturday as America's Jesse Rodriguez puts his Super Flyweight belt on the line against seasoned Thai fighter Sriskat Sor Rungvisai in Texas.Twenty-two-year-old Rodriguez became boxing's current youngest world champion back in February after stepping in to face Carlos Cuadras with less than a week's notice and pulling off a major shock to win the vacant WBC super flyweight title. Read on as we explain how to watch a Rodriguez vs Rungvisai live stream on DAZN all over the world.

Currently 15-0, 10 KOs, Rodriguez is fast growing a reputation as one of boxing's rising talents. He now faces one of the 115 pound division's most enduring fighters over the last decade, and the man who had originally been due to face Cuadras before Rodriguez stepped in. Thirty-five-year-old Sriskat Sor Rungvisai was set to get his chance at the WBC title, only to be forced out of the big fight with illness.

The former two-time WBC titlist (50-5-1, 40 KOs) has previously downed a host of big name talents including Roman Gonzalez twice and current WBA title holder Juan Francisco Estrada.

Saturday's bill also boasts a pretty solid undercard, with two other title fights, however the planned main supporting act of Julio Cesar Martinez and McWilliams Arroyo's much-anticipated rematch has been canned after Martinez pulled out late on Wednesday. Read on to find out how to watch a Rodriguez vs Rungvisai live stream from anywhere today.
