What is Paramount+ reach? Doesn’t come up much outside of one friend who said check out Landman. Man too many streaming services around

Since Zuffa doesn't want to work with the sanc bodies then the IBF should strip Opetia of his belt and the other orgs should drop him from their rankings.

"What is Paramount+ reach?"

****

I subscribe as it's only £7.99 for ad free and has a lot of tv series and movies, so basically chirpy chirpy cheep cheap. Everyone else I know is with Netflix or NOW (Sky app), or both. I just double checked and there is no other sport content on Paramount+, so whilst I was pleased to see boxing coming, I'm not sure how long it will stay.

So I need DAZN, Paramount plus, and Top Rank reportedly finished a non exclusive deal with Starz to have one show per month. Bob Arum said there would be multi networks showing TR fights. I really hope it's DAZN because I don't particularly want to pay for 4 streaming services just for boxing lol. If that happens then I would just cut Zuffa loose and watch the highlights on Youtube.

The problem with Zuffa is it's on Paramount+ and no-one is going to pay for that sh@*. Even if 90% of people in the US and West weren't struggling financially, which they are, and we were in a boom period, peeps still wouldn't subscribe to Paramount. It's the worst of all the streaming services.

Yeah go ahead and cut Zuffa no need to wait they have zero talent besides Jai and lets see where this even leads IF he lands a big fight they most likely cross promote but honestly who could Jai fight.

He needs to wait for the winner of Benavidez vs Ramirez and then they have to make a big play to get the winner fight them as Benavidez wants to fight Bivol or Beterbiev next.

No matter what Zuffa is doing with Jai, they need to pay big money and they need to break what they promised and crawl to Oscar or Al and also go on their knees and kiss the sanctioning bodies hand.
