    It's gonna struggle to cross over to the mainstream, that's why boxing fans need to support it, 'cause their emphasis on subscription level boxing is the avenue that's gonna provide the best value and keep the sport affordable to watch.

    Thurman v Barrios on PPV. It's laughable.

      DAZN is pretty good. Looking forward to the Benn vs Algieri fight next weekend. Bivol too.

      The Spain cards can be fun.

      Haney Jojo last week, Teo the week before.

      Parker vs Chisora will be an entertaining scrap. Also madrimov vs soro, Zurdo cards that weekend.

      I’m happy

        It is really DAZN job to get us a reason too and NO Boxing Alone is not popular enough as a whole here in the U.S. to make people subscribe and to keep people subscribed

        The Community of Hardcore Boxing Fans is extremely SMALL maybe 350-400K Hardcore Fans here in the U.S. if that. Out of those Hardcores you're luck to get 1/4 of those Hardcores to Subscribe. Considering the amount of people asking for Links on fight night, yeah I seriously doubt most Hardcores here in the U.S. are subscribed to DAZN. Not only that but Boxing Demographic is OLD AS F^CK most still have Cable or Satellite TV and really haven't transitioned to or even know how to use or Setup Apps

        So yeah DAZN is a great Idea but it fails here in America BUT it can still do well worldwide even without much success in the U.S.

            Some Americans seem to be under the impression that DAZN is some sort of foreign invasion and by not having it and constantly complaining about it or generally crapping on it they are doing their front line defensive duties for the nation.

            Also we got these PBC fangimp morons who see DAZN and Eddie Hearn as the white devil sent to destroy Al Haymon and his black business for black Boxers. They are fkking ****** but most of these are not actual Boxing fans they are all about using the sport for their racial narratives.

            But either way, if they are happy to spend thousands on weak PPV's with pathetic undercards while crying about the price of an App and the Boxing it provides then that is up to them. As long as they have an idea of how fkking salty they sound when they trying to play it down.

              I think it provides much better value for US fans UK subcribers given that most fights on there are at sociable hours for US fans, where as it's a harder sell when a lot of the content is on at 4am for UK viewers. Wouldn't be so sure of Parker v Chisora being an entertaining scrap, first one was pretty dour imo

                I've had my yearly subscription since launched, $8.50/mo is damn no brainer.

                  I’m in the UK. We pay a little less for the subscription £7.99 pm which is about 11 bucks.

                  Definitely envy all fights on at social hours but with DAZN I can the whole card without spoilers the following morning. Apps are so convenient.

                    I get their hatred, it's okay to think Eddie Hearn is a stuck up, pompous, twat AND to like the fights that are on DAZN. Hearn wins himself no fans with his persona, but you don't gotta like him to appreciate DAZN's effort to provide subscription level boxing across Matchroom and Golden Boy

                      DAZN needs to give US fans a reason to pay for the service.

                      Like maybe giving Golden Boy Promotions a bigger budget and letting them be in charge of fight cards for the American market.

                      And you do know that DAZN is planning on doing their own PPVs now, right?
