This move is set to enhance the league’s broadcast quality significantly, bringing a wealth of experience and respect that Bernstein has garnered over his distinguished career in boxing commentary.

Al Bernstein, who has been a prominent voice in boxing for over four decades, made his debut back in 1980 with the ESPN Top Rank Boxing Series.

His energetic and insightful commentary has made boxing more accessible to fans worldwide.

In 2003, Bernstein transitioned to Showtime, where he became an integral part of “Showtime Championship Boxing” and “ShoBox: The New Generation.” His role there lasted over two decades until the network concluded its boxing programming in 2024. Even after this conclusion, Bernstein has remained active, contributing to boxing coverage on DAZN and hosting his own talk show focusing on the sport.
