Katie Taylor faces undefeated Flora Pili at Croke Park on Saturday, September 5 in what the promoter and sanctioning body describe as Taylor's final professional fight. Taylor defends the WBA, IBF, WBO, IBO and Ring super-lightweight titles while the vacant WBC championship is also at stake.
The full event streams worldwide on DAZN. The promoter has confirmed an eight-fight supporting card, but it has not published the broadcast start, main-card start or Taylor-Pili ring-walk time. Any website displaying an exact ring-walk hour before the official event schedule appears is estimating.

How to watch Taylor vs Pili
DAZN is the confirmed worldwide live broadcaster. Viewers should search for the Taylor vs Pili event inside the DAZN app for their own country rather than assuming that another territory's checkout terms apply.
Matchroom's official undercard announcement repeatedly identifies the complete event as live worldwide on DAZN.
The announcement does not currently label the event as pay-per-view. DAZN can change how an event is packaged by market, and its terms allow both subscription content and separately priced add-on events. Verify whether Taylor-Pili is included with the local subscription or requires an extra purchase before paying.
DAZN prices and plan warnings
United Kingdom
DAZN's current direct UK prices are:
- Monthly Flex: £25.99 per month with a rolling 30-day arrangement and 30-day cancellation notice
- Annual Contract: £15.99 per month for a 12-month minimum term
- Annual upfront: £119.99 for 12 months
- DAZN Ultimate annual instalment: £24.99 per month

The official UK plans page says the standard plans allow two registered devices and two concurrent streams without an IP-address limit. For a pay-per-view event, viewing is restricted to one device in one location. Ultimate includes eligible pay-per-view events but has a 12-month commitment and no free trial.
Taylor-Pili has not yet been officially identified as a pay-per-view event. Do not buy Ultimate only for this fight until the event tile shows whether an additional purchase is required.
United States and Ireland
DAZN's event announcement confirms availability in both markets, but reliable current Taylor-Pili checkout prices for the United States and Ireland were not published in the official sources reviewed.
Open the country-specific event page while physically located in the intended viewing market. Confirm:
- the local monthly or annual price;
- whether the fight is included or sold separately;
- whether a trial is offered;
- the renewal date and cancellation rules;
- taxes and app-store billing differences.
Prices from the UK page should not be converted into dollars or euros because market plans and event entitlements can differ.

What titles are at stake?
Taylor holds the WBA, IBF, WBO, IBO and Ring Magazine titles at super lightweight. The WBC title is vacant, making this an undisputed championship fight.
The World Boxing Council's official order names Taylor and reigning EBU champion Pili for the vacant WBC world title. The WBC lists Taylor at 25-1 with six knockouts and Pili at 12-0 with two knockouts in its fight announcement.
Records should be rechecked on fight week because governing-body and promoter pages can update after intervening activity or corrections.
When will Taylor vs Pili start?
The precise broadcast, main-card and ring-walk times are not yet official.
Ticketmaster displays a 4:00 p.m. local event time, but a stadium doors or ticket-event time is not automatically the DAZN broadcast start. It also does not prove the main-event ring walk.
Dublin uses Irish Standard Time, UTC+1, on September 5. Once the official broadcast time appears, Start2Watch will publish conversions for:
- Dublin and London;
- US Eastern and Pacific;
- Central European Summer Time;
- Australian Eastern Standard Time.
On fight night, ring walks can move earlier or later depending on the duration of the undercard.
DAZN devices and viewing setup
DAZN supports internet-connected televisions, computers, phones, tablets, Fire TV, Apple TV, many Roku and Chromecast/Google TV devices, and current PlayStation and Xbox consoles. Older models and operating systems may not be supported.
Use the device you plan to watch on before fight night:
- Install or update the official DAZN app.
- Sign in and find the Taylor vs Pili event tile.
- Confirm that the tile says live in your country.
- Check whether the event is included or requires a separate purchase.
- Play an ordinary video and confirm stable audio and picture.
- Open the live broadcast before the first bout.
DAZN advises that content and subscription entitlements vary by territory. A VPN does not create legitimate rights, and DAZN's travel policy does not guarantee that locally sold paid content follows a user into another market.
Replays, highlights and simultaneous streams
DAZN normally provides live and on-demand sports plus highlights, and its Ultimate plan includes the fight archive. The exact Taylor-Pili replay duration has not yet been stated on the event page.
UK standard plans currently list two concurrent streams without an IP-address limit. Pay-per-view viewing is limited to one device in one location. Those UK rules must not be assumed for US or Irish accounts; verify the local account page.
If avoiding spoilers matters, turn off sports notifications and social-media alerts before opening the replay. Check the event tile immediately after the live broadcast rather than assuming a permanent replay.
Is Taylor vs Pili free to watch?
No complete licensed free live stream has been confirmed.
DAZN sometimes labels selected events or preliminaries as free, but neither Matchroom nor DAZN has announced free Taylor-Pili coverage in the sources reviewed. A free DAZN account does not automatically unlock every fight.
Start2Watch will update this section if DAZN publishes free prelims, a trial, a promotional stream or a territorial free-TV partner. Until then, posts promising a free full fight should be treated as unverified.
Start2Watch does not link to unauthorized restreams, copied credentials, social-media mirrors or unlicensed IPTV relays.
