    Boxing fans get what they deserve

    Over the last 2 1/2 years no other network has invested in boxing more than Showtime. Signing Joshua. Showing international fights on their station & YouTube. Making it easy for fans like myself, who don't have cable tv, to watch the fights on their app for the same price as a regular Showtime subscription.

    Boxing fans are rooting for Eddie Hearn to stop this, split their roster, and charge you to pay more for lesser quality.

    Only boxing fans root for higher prices & more division. Then complain about the price of PPV & the best not fighting the best.

        People will pay if quality is given.
        Stop complaining if u are short on money to pay for all this streaming services.

          Competition breds a better product far more often than it doesn't.

          I think PBC raised the tide. I think TRs ESPN deal pushed it a lil higher. And I think DAZN has the ability to take boxing to its highest point in many decades.

          Don't hate, appreciate.

            Boxing fans are some of the most miserable fans. The majority aren’t happy unless they are complaining or hating.

              I'll be honest if I lived in America I wouldn't be happy at this news.

              Showtime
              HBO
              ESPN +
              Dazn

              What's that total to pay for a month? A lot.

              Then you have $70-100 PPV's on top of that.

              I think the UK is extortion and we have it alright here.

              Sky Sports and BT Sport/Boxnation is all you need.

              BT Sport £16 a month and Sky Sports £18 a month and PPV's £17-20.

                If the price is .01 you're still adding to what you're already paying.

                Split the roster and the fighters aren't fighting each other anymore so the quality is lower.

                  Yet we claim we want boxing centralized. How is HBO doing now a days?
