    AJ v Povetkin - WBA/IBF/WBO
    BJS v Andrade - WBO
    Jacobs v Derev - Vacant IBF

    And isn't the first month free?
    So you want Americans to pay $15 for three fighters who have no intrest to Americans. Why don't you pathetic brits educate yourselves and telling Americans what to buy in their own countey, boxing is a third rate sport in America.

    Joshua is on in the Afternoon, DAZN is more expensive than HBO or Showtime who offer Game Of Thrones or Homeless. Hearn is on a slippery slope and promoters like him are despised. Especially given African-Americans dominate the American Boxing Demographic.

      I didn't tell anyone to buy anything you cretin.

      Promoters like Hearn? From your last sentence I can guess what you mean by that. Pathetic.

        Firstly, its $9.99 a month.

        Secondly, With Hearns roster we will find out how good of a promoter he is. However, I do think the roster will get better because he has the money to get everyone besides Canelo.

        HBO has a small budget for Boxing now and to watch their biggest star in Canelo its going to be on PPV. Therefore having DAZN will be far more rewarding for a fight fan than HBO especially for me because I don't watch anything on HBO besides boxing.

          So far Eddie hasn’t managed a single US signing who even slightly moves the needle.

          This venture in USA depends upon there being a paying audience who will plop down $120 a year to watch his British cards, and that’s an exceedingly small demographic.

            Yes, so let's wait until he gets some top fighters and improve his roster and matches. I'm not paying $10 a month to be fed BS of how Joshua v Wilder is happening next and getting the luxury of seeing women fight

              There is no logical excuse for people to fork out extra when Showtime or HBO gives you 5X More content for the same price.

              Boxing is a niche sport in America, Mexican-American and African-Americans are the majority demographics you are appealing to, as proven by the Mayweather obsession with Mexican Fighters and Independence day.

              Also the growing talk of Spence v Mikey Garcia. They are Low Income demographics. Hearn is a bit deluded, he thinks replicating what he does in Britain will work in America.

              Wilder, Broner, Canelo- three biggest draws. Two fight on Showtime the other on HBO. Case closed. Joshua-Wilder is the fight which might give Hearn some steam, even then that fight likely to be on Showtime if Wilder demands it.
