    If they can't compete with the little girls market, how are they going to compete with the big boys ?

    UK Market revolves around Preimer League. If DAZN can't afford PL Rights how are they going to afford NBA, NFL Rights ?

    Which is what they need to becomd the Netflix of Sports In America. US Competition is more hostile.

      America has been the dominating force in world boxing for so long the old wankies hate the fact that has now shifted to the other side of the pond. Fact

        uhh he backed out of fighting charlo, add in he always had promotional issues

        its not haymons fault he couldnt get any fights

          i dont know the ins and outs but they said other countries dont have the monopoly on sports like sky and bt do over here. i think youre underestimating how expensive PL rights are too.

            It was a low-ball offer. Something like $75K, which is not even enough to cover training and management expenses. They could have improved it after his impressive performance in the Nelson fight, especially when boring Lara was getting $1 mil per fight fighting cans.

              via espn.. who cares what lara gets, thats between him and haymon, andrade was never with haymon

              Andrade was offered $250,000, which was eventually increased to $300,000, which would have been a career-high.

              "We're the only legitimate titleholder on the whole card and everyone else is making more than us? That's not right," Paul Andrade said. "I'm glad they're all getting paid. I really am, but pay us too. The fight's off. (DeGuardia and Pelullo) put themselves and us in a bad situation.

              "We ain't worried about fighting Charlo but everything has a value. We wanted a fair purse. We've done our cheap fights. They need to put more money on the table and they need to talk to us about the plan for my son's career."

                Yeah, that's the thing. He was an oddball in the group.
                He was a threat to Haymon's fighter's zeros.
                Haymon/Espinoza would rather see him disappear.

                  So now you wanna suck him off because he signed with Hearn?

                      PL Rights for Sky’s Share is around 3-4Billion.

                      That’s how much NBA, NFL rights cost.
