How many PPVs are there going to be? What is the last PPV from SHO? Wilder vs Fury will absolutely be on PPV, but that fight also has no chance of ever being on regular SHO or FOX or DAZN or ESPN. What are the other so called PPVs that will be happening? Spence vs Garcia? Lets see if that comes off, but that is the one questionable PPV. Though it is one with two P4P top 10 fighters and big names. Hearn believes he could get that fight on DAZN, but definitely wouldn't have gotten Wilder/Fury with both making over 10-15 million for that fight.
And even though I will be purchasing DAZN, it is fair for others not to want it. Paying $10 bucks a month for simply boxing/MMA is different than paying for SHO/HBO which have other hit series like Game of Thrones or Billions, plus plenty of other material. Then you have others who simply aren't tech savvy enough to get the app playing on the television.
So yeah, lets actually see how many PPVs we get from the PBC side before making that statement. We have gotten a total of 0 since the PBC launched and the first one is set to take place later this year between Wilder and Fury.Comment

Once again, SHO has FAR more than just boxing. But where the hell are you getting these four PPVs from? And no, Hearn's budget can't accommodate a card equivalent of 350,000 buys if you are referring to Wilder/Fury. That card is equivalent of 350,000 US buys PLUS 500,000 UK buys. That is a fight where you will be needing to pay at least $25 million. And there are rumors that both believe they will be closer to the $20 million range ($40 total). In that case forget about it.
Only other rumored PPV is Spence vs Garcia. And yes, Hearn thinks he can put that fight on DAZN.
ESPN+ is for $5 bucks a month and it has TONS of other material aside from combat sports. DAZN on the other hand has nothing else.Comment

If Hearn was to spend $12 million on a card, it would be equivalent of a PPV that brings in $24 million, Hearn dont have to give no cut to any cable companies.
