Jonas' boxing career is nothing short of extraordinary. A highly-gifted amateur turned pro in 2017, she came out of retirement, after having a daughter, to dominate boxing, overcoming significant adversity to become a three-weight world champion.

It was a controversial split draw against Terri Harper – in August 2020's world title fight that many thought Jonas won – that sparked the late-career resurgence. Two years later, Jonas won world titles in two weight divisions to become the first woman to claim the British Boxing Board of Control's British Boxer of the Year Award.

Now fighting at welterweight, after becoming undisputed at junior middleweight, the 39-year-old stopped Kandi Wyatt last July.

Mayer also turned pro in 2017 and has since established herself as one of the biggest names. Now in her fifth world title fight, the 33-year-old has won fans on the opposite side of the Pond for her stiff jab and heavy hands. She goes in as the underdog but if she can hit and move, her younger legs may help her get early rounds en route to a points decision.

Here's everything you need to watch the Jonas vs Mayer live stream, including live streams from around the world.

How to watch Jonas vs Mayer live streams from anywhere

A VPN, or virtual private network, makes it look as if you're surfing the web from your home country, rather than the one you're in. That means you can access the streaming services you already pay for, from anywhere on Earth. Or anywhere that has an internet connection, at least.

For instance, an American who's currently in the U.K. could watch Jonas vs Mayer on ESPN Plus, even though they're not in the U.S..

They're totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. We've tested lots of the best VPN services and our favorite right now is ExpressVPN. It's fast, works on loads of devices, and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.K. and want to view a U.S. service, such as Sling, FuboTV or ESPN Plus, you'd select U.S. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to ESPN Plus, as you usually would back in the States, and watch the Jonas vs Mayer live stream.

Sky Sports is broadcasting the Jonas vs Mayer live stream in the U.K., so if you already have a Sky subscription that doesn't include Sports, you'll need to pay £18/month to add those channels. The fight will be shown on Sky Sports Main Event.

If you don't want to shell out for a full Sky subscription, you could also consider its Now streaming service. This gives you 24-hour access for £11.98 or month-long access for £34.99. 

All sounds great, right? But if you're not in the U.K., you can still follow the Jonas vs Mayer live streams by country live stream by using one of the best VPN services, such as ExpressVPN

Unfortunately, as it stands there is no broadcaster for the Jonas vs Mayer live stream in Australia. 

Kayo Sports is a regular for boxing live streams, so you may want to keep an eye out closer to the fight to see if a late deal has been struck.

Remember, if you're traveling Down Under at the minute and want to catch the fight with your regular subscription from abroad, get yourself a VPN to stop yourself being geo-blocked.
