Comments Thread For: Hearn: Greatest Thing To Happen To U.S. Boxing in a Long Time!

[SAINTSTEVE]

I'm not lining this cat's pockets UNTIL HE MAKES JOSHUA VS WILDER YA HEAR ME? But honestly even then I'm not buying this crap.

Americans owe a huge debt to British boxing. They invented boxing. If it wasn't for British class Americans would still be beating each other with sticks.

To all of the Joshua fanboys...
You can no longer call Joshua a PPV star!
The fanboys will subscribe to DAZN to watch Joshua fight, but you will be paying the salaries of every other boxer fighting on DAZN because nobody cares about any of the other boxers. In essence, Joshua's pay has hit a ceiling, and will start shrinking soon unless he fights Wilder.

Hearn looks set to be the most obnoxious British export to the US since John Oliver

There's no leading star personality with some serious momentum to push the app for 10 dollars a month.. I like miller, an andrade.. but who will they face? ... It looks like in order for Eddie spaghetti to get some big fights on dazn he's going to have to cut Haymon in regardless! Lol.

“We launched DAZN to disrupt the status quo and change the way the world sees sports,” said James Rushton, DAZN CEO. “When you get DAZN, you’ll get all the fights; we won’t stash our best matchups for PPV, linear TV or a higher-tier package. And you’re going to get the entire card live, no matter the time zone and without constraints for one affordable price

No fight aligned to DAZN is PPV worthy in the US. IN the UK, Hearn puts on **** fights on PPV, so they could suck up to them with those comments. There's only 1 PPV fighter in the US and that Canelo and maybe GGG, depending who he fights. If anyone associated with DAZN get a fight with Canelo, they'll be fighting on HBO PPV in the US and the rights to the fight in other countries will be sold to DAZN. There was no huge news today about DAZN, nothing was mind blowing to say its the best thing to happen to boxing in the US.

Well said, I know of no other PPV fighters that Hearn can talk about or much less sign.....Crawford, Spence & maybe Thurman (if he can ever recoup) have a ways to go before theyre even deemed worthy......Hearn has Joshua headlining and will use his "celebrity" to push this thing. About the only thing that sounds interesting is seeing fights no matter the time zone - but again, what matters is is who's fighting? and its not like the technology doesnt exist - this can simply turn out to be another Friday Nights Fights - only now on a buffering streaming app ..... plus I'm not interested in paying this evasive greedy coward slickster a thing......He's the representative and to me he's a delusional pampered jerk and he's cloning his robot to be just like him......"The greatest thing to happen" to him, besides snatching up Joshua at the right time in his budding career.......

Yea.. that's like saying Ps4 owes a huge debt to Atari! Lol. You sound ridiculously dumb.. America took it to the next level.
