Yeah I kind of think the same.
That they will just dwindle away the Billions injected as they did the first time around. Yeah the whole Sunday ticket negation was bad for DAZN big time.
I mean, they have other sports like darts and stuff but it doesn't seem so attractive overall.Comment

I agree slightly. But even PBC when they first came out pitched Free Boxing for all, now look at them, PPVs all around, even very low quality PPVs. If DAZN only do 3-4 PPVs pee year for major fights, and don't price them ridiculously high then I'll stick with them. Cards haven been good for the most part. I don't think we can get away from PPVs in boxing unfortunately.I signed up for DAZN since the beginning, but if they actually implement PPV then I'm done with them.
I don't like liars. If you pitched a subscription model, then stay with that. If you cant afford to do Canelo fights without going to PPV, then let someone else do the Canelo fights.Comment

That's probably exactly what's going to happen. I remember that Hearn interview where he talked about going that route. They'll definitely lose a lot of subscribers if that happensI signed up for DAZN since the beginning, but if they actually implement PPV then I'm done with them.

He's the primary investor in the the company that oversees DAZN so he's already committed. It's hard to say if the money is an injection of resources or just a clearing of the debt (or a mixture of both). It's definitely a show of confidence and doubling down on the DAZN venture.
The article I read stated that DAZN saw 20% revenue increase but still staggering losses. My wild guess using simple math is that buys the project a year or two to show evidence of sustainability but who knows. I imagine they will use this move to try and secure some type of sports rights that will get them closer to that goal.

It's no surprise they could of been struggling with money, they have tried to deliver well and have spent a lot of money trying, they don't seem to of done badly but they could be doing better.Years ago, Eddie Hearn was boasting a lot about a billion dollar type deal for the Boxing sector.
Now, a billionaire just gave about 4 billion dollars to get DAZN out of debt.
Sounds like DAZN has been struggling to stay afloat all around including the Boxing sector.
Do you think DAZN is delivering well regarding Boxing events? Will they stay around for long? Do you think they will get more names in their roster with this new injection of revenue?
Your thoughts.
It seems for one reason or another they have hit alot of resistance in the American Market which can't of helped and they have just took a big hit in Europe by losing out on BT sport or what ever it was.
Ppl keep pumping money in but will want to see some turn around on investments at some point, I like what they are trying to do and I hope they succeed but if they go bad then I pull the plug on my contract.
