Promoter Eddie Hearn revealed the first recruits to DAZN in New York City on Tuesday…
The unbeaten, loudmouth New Yorker had a bust-up with Anthony Joshua at the launch event for DAZN. Miller has long been mooted as the man to welcome Joshua to the United States. He must wait his turn, but will fight on October 6 live on Sky Sports.
The Canada-based Russian will put his world title on the line against Britain's Callum Johnson to kick off DAZN on October 6, from Chicago.
Aged 28, Roman has already defended his 122lbs world title twice. He impressively won the belt against Shun Kubo in his opponent's home country of Japan. He will next face Britain's Gavin McDonnell, who is ranked at No 3 in the WBA's list of contenders. Ryosuke Iwasa (IBF), Isaac Dogboe (WBO) and Rey Vargas (WBC) are the equivalent champions.
Vargas was on the verge of a world title unification fight against Kell Brook in 2016 that never came to fruition. He has held the WBA super-lightweight and the WBO welterweight belts. Vargas' two defeats came against Timothy Bradley and Manny Pacquiao, and more recently he drew with Adrien Broner.
Taylor's perfect pro career has already yielded two world title belts inside nine fights. She will box on October 6 against Cindy Serrano live on Sky Sports.
The unbeaten Andrade has held WBA and WBO gold at 154lbs and did not lose either in the ring. He successfully travelled to Germany to beat Jack Culcay for the WBA belt. The southpaw is now a middleweight and has been ordered by the WBO to challenge their champion, Billy Joe Saunders.
The unbeaten American won his world title last month in the UK, beating Terry Flanagan in Manchester. His fellow champions at 140lbs are Kiryl Relikh (WBA) and Jose Carlos Ramirez (WBC). Hooker trains alongside fellow Texan Errol Spence Jr.
