It was in March that we last saw Mikey Garcia. Since his defeat against Errol Spence Jr. at the AT&T Stadium, 32-year old Garcia has been away from the boxing scene, but is now set to return. World Boxing Council made the announcement that Garcia will take on Jessie Vargas in February in a fight with the WBC Diamond title as prize.

Garcia has signed an exclusive deal with the streaming platform DAZN. So, his February fight will not only be his first since March 2019 but also his debut on DAZN.

The reason why Garcia picked Vargas as his next fight has something to do with regaining the confidence of his fans and of himself, according to his interview.

How to Watch Mikey Garcia vs Jessie Vargas on Xbox

As we mentioned up there, Garcia has signed a deal with DAZN that will make the upcoming fight exclusive to the platform. No surprises there, DAZN has been quite aggressive in securing deals that it can sell as attractions to new and existing customers.

The only problem is that DAZN is not available worldwide. If you live in a country that is not supported by DAZN, you cannot access the fight. DAZN is available in the United States, Canada, Germany, Brazil, Spain, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, and Japan. Folks in the United Kingdom can tune in to Sky Sports for the fight.

If you reside outside any of these regions or are travelling to one then it’s impossible to access the livestream without a VPN. However, using a VPN on Xbox is not difficult at all. Follow these steps:
