Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk: Pay-Per-View on DAZN, TNT Sports, Sky Sports

$70 for this card is a non-starter for me. Only other fight that is mildly interesting is the Opetaia/Breidis fight. I need to cancel my DAZN, have been pretty underwhelmed with their content recently (for an escalating price). I wish they would show more of the Italian and Spanish cards they once provided.

It’s sad that we can’t see boxing on regular tv but then I think regular tv isn’t what it used to be with the nature of apps and streaming. My favourite tv show of the last 5 years (that doesn’t have Star Trek in the title) was ted lasso and I had to have Apple TV for that one. Even my Trek shows are paramount through Amazon. I’m glad Haymon held out for Amazon, though I’m also hoping he gets a deal with Netflix for even more shows but I think this time there is exclusivity for pbc

Yea I was hoping for Netflix to be the 2nd network for more shows but I think Amazon and Haymon looked back at the Showtime/FOX relationship and decided against it. If this Amazon thing us gonna work then it has to be exclusively Amazon. Hopefully 12-14 PPV fights and then 24 more non Ppv smaller shows.

There's actually a decent amount of boxing content on ESPN+ as you detailed above. For a boxing fan, it's not that bad of a deal especially if you like other sports content. I always enjoy the Canadian cards they air.

I agree with you
They are trying at least for boxing and also trying to put out a decent product
Yes the Canadian cards have been fun and decent ( not all fights lol )
But at least they are attempting to give the users something of value and like you said , a sports fan in general gets quite a bit of stock
And it ain’t that expensive compared to other apps

You know what , I have the Italian Dazn and I haven’t seen one boxing card on it
Not sure what the reason is or if I’m fughed up but can’t seem to catch anything
The Italian cards are similar to the Canadian cards where not the best but they try to be equilibrate
Turns out you catch some pretty good fights

Good news for us brits sky are involved in ppv & i don't have sky.

I tried last card to ppv, dazn you have to sign up to they're subscription service (shove it)
Tnt they're usless app takes you online & if you have any kind of decent Internet security it showed no event's available (usless)
Leaving sky, again online but simples.

& they wonder why people stream or like myself watch the highlights on youtube in the morning with a cuppa.

Yeah, that's some straight up robbery, having to subscribe to even buy a PPV fight! DAZN must sense that its days are numbered, so they try to suck every penny out of fight fans. I'm still trying to get motivated for this fight. I think when Fury fought Ngannou and nearly lost, it took some of the excitement away from a fight with him vs Usyk. Maybe Tyson thinks that the mystery of not knowing which version of him will show up is intriguing, but I beg to differ.

Ok "fizzing at the bung" I had to look that one up. Two meanings....1) in a state of intense excitement 2) for a woman to be in such a state of excitement that her that is leaking. Ooooook I'm going to assume you were using the first definition. Anyway that shyte is funny AF and I'm going to be using the 2nd definition for my female friends from now on. Thanks Britian!!

But seriously tho I feel you share the same sentiments as me about Mr Fury. His entire career he is herky jerky man but in 2 1/2 fights with Wilder he is Kronk Fury a.k.a. Gorilla mixed with Ghidrah!
