On the internet, if you look hard enough you can usually find anything. However, about a couple years ago DAZN released a trailer (as a supposed “DAZN original”) of a documentary directed by Eva Longoria regarding the hoopla and excitement surrounding the fight(s) between the well-established Julio Cesar Chavez and a young gun in Oscar de la Hoya nearly 30 years ago.
The trailer looked phenomenal and modern, anybody who saw it knows it had promise. It didn’t mention a release date. All it said was “Coming soon”. Six months and then a year afterwards, still nothing. And now two years have gone by and now the trailer isn’t even on the platform and you can’t find it ANYWHERE.
If you look up the two trailers officially uploaded to YouTube by the DAZN channel, you’ll see the comments section echoing my sentiments by several others chomping at the bit and still frustrated that this looks like a huge tease (two years later).
There’s no information, no announcement about when it’s dropping, no telling if it got swept under the rug, if somebody sued for defamation, etc. Apparently, there’s a very small circle that got to watch it at Sundance a couple years ago but that’s it.
It really sucks that this essentially is getting chalked up as lost media since there is no information about what happened nor is there a way to see the film.
i can’t be the only boxing fan here that knows (and is frustrated) by this, right?
Does ANYBODY know ANYTHING about what happened between DAZN, Oscar and this film never getting put on the app (or anywhere) for that matter?
