The time difference means the ring walks will take place at around 4am on Sunday for viewers on this side of the world.

The free trial is good news for football fans, who can also watch the Club World Cup on the streaming service.

Jake Paul may be a controversial figure but he does have a good record in the ring and victory over former WBC middleweight champ Chavez Jr could be the next step to him legitimately competing at cruiserweight level. 

Paul's decision to fight ageing fighters means he is once again favourite for the bout thanks to his extra inch in height and three-inch reach advantage over the Mexican fighter. 

Paul has won 11 of his 12 professional fights with seven KOs but Chavez is vastly more experience with 54 wins from his 61 fights, 34 by KO. 

Once again Paul has been vocal before the fight, boasting his story is one of the best in sport and claiming he could beat Chavez Jr and his father, Chavez Sr at the same time. 

He said: "Put both the Chavezs in there, I'll whoop Sr and Jr in the same night," he said.

"Going from Disney Channel to YouTube to world champion in six to seven years? That's the most relatable and best sports story that any kid can get behind."

The two will fight at the Honda Center in Anaheim, the 18,000-capacity venue that also houses NHL team Anaheim Ducks. 

Fans who want to watch the fight and intend to see the heavyweight clash between Oleksandr Usyk v Daniel Dubois II  in July can buy both fights in a single bundle priced at £39.99 with DAZN.
