Comments Thread For: World Boxing Super Series on DAZN - Details of Agreement

[Marvlus Marv]

Kalle said he wanted to do 1 ‘heavier’ weight class per season and also said heavyweight was another year away so I would guess light heavyweight for this one.

Yesss! I ***en love Kalle. He's making it happen just when boxing needed a whiff of the old smelling salts

DAZN been on NSB listening to us complain about no US stations picking up the WBSS?

They probably noticed some of the grumbles. I’m not sure if the networks didn’t like the concept or fighters or what because WBSS could be the future of boxing if Cruiser is a classic and SMW goes ahead as planned.

The networks have been reducing their boxing budgets these last few years and concentrating elsewhere. There's room for someone to make something and take the rest if they aren't investing. If a couple of these ideas appear on the scene then the end of PPV on top of multiple subscriptions could be in sight.
And that would be happy days for boxing fans.

I wonder what the ''TBA'' division will be? I'm hoping it's the light heavies. I have my doubts that all the players at 147 would sign up without a drama. At least we're heading in the right direction. Big up Kalle! (snniiiffff)

i'm thinking it will be MW or LHW. At MW there is a traffic jam caused by all waiting for a shot at Canelo and Golovkin and I see more chance of Canelo GGG doing a third fight than either fighting Jacobs or Charlo. BJS would have to belt up or shut up plus there - is D-chenko and fillers like o'Sullivan and Lemieux and maybe Eubank jr. But LHW is the most obvious - that division has been stifled for years by Stevenson and is loaded with talent.

They have the 2 finals. Hearn has already said Sky wont have the 2nd season. Hope ITV don't get it again, £15 PPVs for Burnett, Taylor and whatever other Brits enter the 3rd weight. Americans think they've got it bad.

Agree nobody watched anything on itv, when they charge ppv are nobodies. One thing Hearn does guarantee is really strong cards, if it’s a ppv you can be assured of great fights throughout. The only exception is arguably the klitschko Joshua fight but the main event was so epic you can’t complain

Why would you want it on SKY when ITV literally stream most of the fights for free. With sky you have to pay for subscription
