        Doesn't get much bigger than Alvarez vs. Saunders which drew 73,126 and set a new indoor attendance record for a fight in the US. That was DAZN.

          That did a gate of $11 mil. The Plant and Charlo fights doubled that gate

            LOL, yep. Revenue matters at this level not how many $30 seats got sold.

            DAZN PPVs: GGG 3, 550k & Bivol, 520k
            Showtime PPVs: Plant, 800k & Charlo, 650k

            Part of it is just Showtime is making fights for him that were interesting or can be hyped as interesting (undisputed vs undisputed) & DAZN wasn't. GGG 3 woulda been a big fight right after their 2nd fight or at least 2yrs before it was made. No one hardly gaf about Bivol now let alone before he beat Alvarez.

              Is there a level when revenue doesn't matter?

                DAZN is pretty subpar at hype, and advertising fights because the reach, especially in the US, isn't good. And doubling the cost only for US subscribers effectively ceded the market to anyone else. If anything, they should have reduced the cost in the US to increase subscribers and gradually increased the cost over years. But they're ******, so they're now trying to survive on the strength of YouTubers like KSI and the Paul brothers. I do appreciate the efforts they've put into women's boxing. IMO, making boxing a viable career for women is long term good for the sport.

                    Arguably I'd say when guys are with low level promoters you are gonna be spending more than you are making or breaking even more often than not from most accounts. Believe One Punch has talked about that often. For sure at the highest levels, like we are talking about most of the time, revenue numbers beats audience numbers all day tho.
