MF Pro launches with Chisora, Conlan and Kelly under DAZN-aligned structure
Kalle Sauerland has taken control of the former Wasserman Boxing stable and rebranded it as MF Pro. The move aligns the roster under a structure tied to DAZN.
The roster includes Derek Chisora, Josh Kelly, Harlem Eubank, Mick Conlan, and Viddal Riley, giving MF Pro immediate presence across multiple weight classes. The company confirmed its first events, with Conlan returning in Belfast on March 20 and a heavyweight fight between Chisora and Deontay Wilder scheduled for Easter weekend at London’s O2 Arena.
MF Sports also holds a significant stake in Misfits Boxing, linking traditional boxing with crossover events under the same umbrella. Both MF Pro and Misfits operate under long-term agreements with DAZN, keeping their fighters on the same broadcast platform.
Kalle Sauerland outlined the direction of the new structure.
“We are extremely excited to be rebranding the business and assuming control,” Sauerland said. “We will aggressively grow in the UK and other markets.”
The shift places another promotional group inside DAZN’s network alongside Matchroom, Queensberry, Golden Boy, and Top Rank. That alignment reduces broadcast conflicts and allows fights to be made with fewer delays tied to rights issues.
MF Pro fighters will now move through a schedule where opponents are easier to secure across the same platform. That affects how contenders are matched, how quickly events are confirmed, and how often fighters stay active.
Pete Oliver, CEO of Growth Markets at DAZN, confirmed the expanded relationship.
“Our partnership with the team at Misfits Boxing has been a brilliant one, and we are delighted to extend that collaboration with MF Sports and the recent launch of MF Pro,” Oliver said.
MF Pro enters the market with a defined schedule and a broadcast partner already in place, positioning its fighters to move toward title opportunities without prolonged negotiation delays
