SiriusXM and DAZN are teaming up to launch a new national daily boxing program. "The Ak and Barak Show" will debut on the SiriusXM Fight Nation channel Monday from 12-3pm ET featuring DAZN personalities Akin "Ak" Reyes and Barak Bess. The duo will provide their unique perspective on the headline stories and trending topics from around boxing, and interviewing many of the biggest names and colorful personalities in and around the sport. Boxing fans can also call into the live show each day to share their thoughts.

"Ak and Barak are two unique and entertaining voices in the boxing world. We're pleased to team up with DAZN and give them a platform to reach boxing fans from coast to coast every weekday on SiriusXM," said SiriusXM SVP of Sports Programming Steve Cohen.

"We're thrilled to announce The Ak and Barak Show on SiriusXM as these off-platform collaborations are core to our strategy to help grow the DAZN brand," added DAZN VP of Talent Josh Santry. "Ak and Barak provide a fresh voice within the boxing community that is underscored by spectacular relationships with fighters and a comprehensive approach to covering the sport."
