      Conor vs Khabib is a must see fight. And McGregor is the most entertaining fighter in combat sports. Will effect the views for Hearns card for sure.

        Regular espn will have all the football and basketball games that matter. Maybe some with a ******** addiction will like it, but other than a few addicts, no one is buying espn+ for their double A college basketball and Div. 3 college football games. It will also show bowling too. For those severe addicts who bet on the PBA, espn+ is a God send. For fans of basketball and football, espn+ offers very little.

              Here is the thing, with the amount of dates SHO, ESPN/ESPN+, soon FOX and occasionally HBO along with the UFC, there are going to be a lot of overlapping going on. Would be great for fight fans not to have this happen but it just isn't possible. No longer are HBO and SHO the only powerhouses around and even they had some same day cards take place.

              DAZN is going to have a extremely slow start anyways. Second level MMA organization and boxing without the top American fighters is all it has right now and that isn't going to result in a lot of subscribers. They have to wait until the NFL and NBA rights open up.

              Unrealistic to think DAZN would even have 100k subscribers by November, so what exactly is Hearn losing with the McGregor card taking place on the same day? And Wilder vs Fury taking place on Nov 10 or 17 is irrelevant as Jacobs fight won't be on DAZN.

                      One hook from Povetkin might ruin it
