Comments Thread For: Top Rank secure new broadcast deal with DAZN

Not surprising. Top rank has been trying to be the East Euro boxing channel for the last ten years. It didn't work out on ESPN but maybe they will have more success on Dazn.....NOT!!!!!!!!

I guess the app won.

It really is kind of sad as an American boxing fan that the best they could do was 1 mill a year on a foreign boxing app. Damn...AMERICAN BOXING DOWN BAD!!!!

The conquest is real. The Europafication continues. Dont get me wrong, I like all boxing, but the emphasis has changed. We get geezer wars from Ireland, from Leeds and Benn vs geezers from London. I kind of miss the old days at the Olympic.

On the other hand the "dinner for schmucks" is almost complete. Dazn came in 2018 with promise to takeover the American market and build a bunch of new American stars for $10 a month. Fast forward 8 years and they have got about 75% of the market but still no American stars.....for $45 a month. They bring on Top rank with no Bud or Shakur. The only good thing about this is we will get a heavy dose of Abdullah Mason. But still they will not have success in America for $45 a month. Sorry!

This is what it was about the whole time. Drag American boxing down to C level Euro boxing. Mission 75% complete. Hold the line PBC!

This is GREAT news for us DAZN subscribers. Hopefully, the membership price doesn't rise much.

You know at some point I will cave and just get DAZN. It is just been hard to justify the price. But if all the major brands are there, I am sure I will cave. I am weak willed. I miss watching boxing.

I will give it a bit to see if prices climb. If they don't, well than it looks like I eat out less every month.

What are you talking about, what Eastern Euros does Top Rank promote?

Looks like PBC is going to go ass up now. Unless they too join DAZN.

Yes i see the addition as being something DAZN is proud of but how will they ever compete with Zuff ? David meet Gollith................. Get your sling and take your shot.......

You obviously aren't here in 'Murica if you're implying Top Rank (and HBO) didn't spend the last 15 years trying to promote East Euro fighters over Americans. Anyway I bet the 3 upcoming shows PBC has coming up will be wildly more popular in America that what Turki boy does!
