Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Hearn is Not Building Anything, Spent Millions of DAZN's Money and Still Hasn't Built Anything!

[_Rexy_]

Hearn literally ruined dazn by overpaying absolute bores in andrade and hankey. And even overpaying golovkin and the final nail in the coffin in carnela thinking he would stay with him. What a fvkcing idiot

Don't forget Tevin Farmer

I told you guys a couple of weeks ago that Oscar was up to something. He just released that Ryan made 30 million on Showtime PPV as the B side. He knows he cannot do that on Dazn PPV because he needs PBC as a dance partner and he knows Haymon will not send any of his upper tier fighters over to Dazn. Oscar is trying to get Dazn to release him from his contract so he can go do an exclusive deal with Espinoza and Showtime. I tried telling you guys this but nooooooooo you didn't want to believe me. TSK TSK TSK

Doesn't know the market ???...Oh FFS it's boxing, not Wall Street.

Dude thinks he's the Zuckerberg of boxing to Fast Eddie's Elon.

I agree with Oscar's overall point. That being said, I beg to ask, Ryan aside: "could Munguia, Bam Rodriguez, Vergil and co be bigger away from DAZN and/or GBP"?

It's just that Golden Boy fights are always corrupt or total mismatches.

I was very surprised Ryan pulled in that much. That is a sh-tload foe your first PPV.

I will keep paying attention to this.

Agreed. I also couldn’t understand giving GGG all that money when his value was as a Canelo opponent.

Canelo’s deal made sense but they seriously overestimated how many Americans would buy dazn to see him.

No they simply had the wrong business model, it made sense if you were doing PPV’s, and they also didn’t have the opponents.. Canelo wanted to cherry pick opponents and refused to listen to Oscar, he wouldn’t fight GGG while he was still anywhere near his prime.

Dazn just doesn't have the reach into the US market like Paramount/CBS/Showtime. Dazn cannot charge 85 bucks for a PPV fight while their subs are already paying 20 bucks a month for their content and then have to turn around and pay PPV prices. It was a doomed business model from the jump. Oscar was the PPV KING in the 90s and he knows Showtime is the only platform that will allow his company to survive. I just saw a fighthype video today where Ryan crashed a Spence interview and he started telling the interviewer how badly he wanted to fight on a PBC card again. Oscar has only two options: 1) move to Showtime 2) sell your company to Haymon. Period! My prediction is GBP, Teo and Haney will be fighting on Showtime in 2024. BANK ON IT!!!
