Promoter Eddie Hearn added that the move will help the sport "push women's boxing where it needs to be.
"The momentum of the last few years led by Katie Taylor has been special to watch but we have still got a long way to go," he said.
"Nights like Saturday change the narrative of the sport, and as I have said before, it’s not men’s boxing and it’s not women’s boxing, it’s just boxing. Katie Taylor is a trailblazer and it is only right that she headlines this card on Saturday on a moment that we have all been working towards for a very long time."
This is the first time that a triple header of women's world title fights has been available to watch live online for free.
Adam Smith, Sky Sports Head of Boxing Development, said that the world-first will hopefully encourage more people to support women's boxing.
"We've been with Katie from the beginning of her professional journey and are proud to be a part of the boom we're seeing in women's boxing," he said. "Through live streaming the action, we are able to bring more boxing fans closer to the hard-hitting action than ever before with this world first."
