The channel has ties with the U.S. sports channel of the same name, sharing some of its programming. Before July 20, 2019, when the U.S. counterpart was known as Univision Deportes Network (UDN), the channel was referred to as Univision TDN during these programs.[1] In 2019, it was announced that TDN and UDN would jointly relaunch as TUDN—signifying a greater amount of collaboration between the two channels.

Logo used from 2012 to July 19, 2019 before the merger of Televisa Deportes Network and Univision Deportes Network to TUDN.

In May 2019, it was announced that both Televisa Deportes Network and Univision Deportes Network would be jointly rebranded as TUDN. The new branding is a combination of abbreviations TDN and UDN, but the first two letters are also pronounced as the Spanish adjective "tu" (your), allowing the name to also be read as "Tu deportes network" ("Your sports network"). TUDN will be promoted as a multi-platform brand, and there will be closer collaboration between the Mexican and American channels—allowing for expanded studio programming in the morning and daytime hours (to bolster its expansion into European soccer with its recent acquisition of UEFA rights, and existing content such as Liga MX soccer).[2][3]
