    Amazon Prime getting into boxing

    It's only a matter of time before they start making moves in US/Europe.



    RIP DAZN

    DAZN may eventually fold, but it won't be for a while, they are funded as a billionaires time waster.

    Eventually though the UK will have sky, BT sports, dazn, amazon prime which will just be terrible for fans as its going to dilute even more.

    We have way too many networks as it is, UK used to basically have all UK fights on sky, and us was obviously HBO and showtime.

    HBO leaving boxing in America has left a massive gulf that is yet to be filled.

    Honestly I think DAZN missed a trick, they should have hoovered up lampley, Kellerman and Jones and tried to replicate HBO's presentation in the US.

    I think having that well known team would have Done more for them than some of the boxers they overpaid for.

      I read a really good article about DAZN here, check it out - https://doubledutchboxing.substack.com/p/round25?s=r

      Personally I'd love Prime to get into boxing, it's already a great-value product.

      Agree re HBO, that was the gold standard and nobody comes close to it.

        The article is about boxing streaming in Japan , DAZN marketplace over there is mostly USEFA and Premier leagues along with overseas baseball, Amazon streaming some boxing doesn’t effect them at all because boxing isn’t there primary income at all anywhere .

        The OP is just another miserable little troll hoping a competitor that puts on many boxing events folds just because they don’t have Fury his Idol .

            It’s unbelievably idiotic.

            We’re getting cards from across the world weekly and this moron gets a hard on for DAZN potentially folding.

            People like this ain’t fans of the sport just fans of certain fighters

                  It's a joke thread you pleb, obviously DAZN isn't going anywhere.

                  It amuses me that you and the illiterate mong redeemer can't resist biting.
