Roy Jones Jr.’s final boxing match will be streamed on UFC Fight Pass, the Las Vegas-based promotion’s digital streaming service.

Jones (65-9, 47 Kos) will square off against Scott Sigman (30-11-1, 16 KOs) at the Bay Center in Pensacola, Fla., on Feb. 8. The bout will be contested under Jones’ Square Ring Promotions banner and marks the first time a live boxing match has aired on UFC Fight Pass.

“Ya’ll musta forgot I always said that my final fight would be in my hometown of Pensacola. I meant it then, and I mean it now,” Jones said in a release. “This is where it all began for me, this will be my 75th professional fight, and it will be my last one. I have been friends with Dana White for years and am so excited for UFC Fight Pass to be streaming this event.”

The five-bout card, entitled Island Fights 46, will begin at 7:30 p.m. ET/4:30 p.m. PT and features both boxing and mixed martial arts fights. Jones is expected to enter the ring at approximately 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT, according to the release.

Jones, who made his professional boxing debut in 1989, owns notable wins over the likes of Bernard Hopkins, James Toney, Mike McCallum, Montell Griffin, Virgil Hill, Julio César González, Antonio Tarver and Felix Trinidad, to name a few. Jones last competed on Feb. 17, 2017, when he defeated Bobby Gunn for the WBF cruiserweight title via eighth-round TKO. Overall, Jones has had six championship reigns in four divisions over the course of his tenure.

“Roy Jones has had a long and distinguished career,” White said. “We have wanted to work together for a long time and I’m glad that I could bring his final fight to all the fans who have UFC Fight Pass.”
