Comments Thread For: Manny Pacquiao To DAZN? Representatives Meet With Hearn

[Randall Cunning]

Can that sell out a Stadium in the UK though? Aside from Canelo Khan hasn't fought anyone relevant in years and Pacquiao is way past his prime. Is Khan really that popular in the UK??

Pacquiao will sell out a stadium, look what he done in Australia. Americas had it lucky having him most his career. Brits will show out just to get to see him, his name still carries weight. Him and Mayweather could sell out a stadium anywhere in the world.

This is like TNA wrestling hiring all the guys who are too old to be in WWF. Sentimental, but sad...

exactly this

Hearn's DAZN is god-sent to Pacquaio.
(Same thing with Hearn.)
Pac can finally get rid of Bobfather once and for all.
Just wondering why HBO, which is pro Pac in their commentaries,
didn't try to re-acquire Pac even if only to piss off Bobfather.

Well DAZN has Bellator, Bellator which it's big names are nothing but UFC has beens and rejects

Yet you didn't support Hearn when he was trying to recruit the Charlo twins,
who have yet to make their first $1 mil.

Would love to see Manny retire and not have these second rate fighters steal a little bit of what is left , which is only name and jaded skills.

There's nothing second rated about Crawford

[James Hunt]

There was a rumor Floyd was going to sign him i won’t believe it till I see the contract inked

Nope. Floyd's been just poking Hearn recently, and that's one of his jibes against Hearn.
The same jibe was with that fake $50m (for 5 fights) deal with Broner.
Floyd is just doing the dirty job on behalf of Al.

Streaming services are probably the future and are just going to get bigger. We've already seen Facebook, Amazon and YouTube dipping their toes into sports markets. It can be a much for the end customer though having to pay so many platforms if you want to watch it all

Yeah, I agree with you but not really with this DAZN app. I just think since Pacquiao is about to turn 40 & has maybe 3 to 5 fights left at most that he should stick with a platform that already has a big following. Why go to some app that only just started out at this stage of his career. Also, just something about this app feels low rent as well like I said. Maybe it’s because I haven’t once on TV saw anyone mention it at all. It’s like there’s no publicity for it. Everyone already knows HBO, Showtime & ESPN obviously.

[James Hunt]

Pacquiao should make a one fight deal with a rematch clause against Crawford then retire with a lot of money.

Arum already said that Manny has NO wish to fight Crawford, but he want's to fight Loma.

Uh Bellator has fighters now that would be top 10 fighters in the UFC, the left the UFC still ranked top 10. If anything its the UFC that is slipping.
