    Aslong as we’re getting our fights I could not care less.

      This right here. I don't get the fascination with promotional banners or content providers. Just keep entertaining or relevant fights coming (at a reasonable price point) and I'm happy.

          To be honest PBC is doing terrible and they were dumped by fox. Even Showtime is doing very bad and might get rid of boxing period boxing is declining that is the problem here.

            I'm glad I'm not a fanatical promoter/network fanboy like you people are. I couldn't care less about DAZN. But I look forward to PBC stepping up in a massive way next year. It is expected to do more big fights. Guys like Andrade, Golovkin, Haney have been or are now on free agent status.

              They've challenged the networks to up their game. Made some great fights. It's all good news for us as boxing fans so still don't understand the hate.

              As for how long they'll stay around, people on here struggle with the idea that they've already established themselves and done it in a short period of time. It's a success story.

              They'll either get sustainable and be around forever, or they'll be bought out/merged.

              DAZN isn't going anywhere.

                The company itself will continue to operate internationally. They’ve actually became players in the market in countries like Germany, Italy, Spain because they’ve acquired the rights to stuff like the Bundesliga, Serie A and La Liga.

                Their venture into boxing won’t last too much longer though, it’s been financially disastrous. If they can’t attract main stream sports in the US or UK soon, I assume they’ll scale back in those two countries also. They obviously came to those countries hoping to secure rights for the EPL, UCL, NBA, NFL etc.

                  Their latest accounts showed losses of 1.3 billion.

                  The US/UK ventures have been about as successful as ***** trying to invade Ukraine. A colossal waste of time, money and effort for little progress.

                    Their latest accounts showed losses of 1.3 billion. Len Blatvanik had to inject over 4 billion of his own cash as part of a recapitalisation strategy to help clear debts.

                    Based on the reported payouts to Canelo-GGG, they very likely lost money on that fight too.

                      Doomsday-sayers predicting nonsensical predictions. Don't know why these guys are making themselves look foolish. DAZN is the future. Boxing will stay. Boxing actually made their brand bigger.

                      They will come back bigger and smarter because they gained better grasp of the mechanics of the sport, as crazy as it is. Mr Eddie Hearn will never go away. Hehe... eggs will fall flat on your faces, you'll see.
