Eddie Hearn mentioned he expects bellew Usyk press conference Monday and I think he said his “big” fight this year on DAZN was being announced end of the week? So will be interesting to see who it Is
Thoughts re DAZN?

There marketing strategy the DAZN guy talked about was all about hardcore fans only at this stage. Reality is casual fans are unlikely anyway I would guess until there sport range is more broader?I actually like Eddie's shows & feel they are the most competitive shows up & down in the sport at the tip top level of promotion. I think Mayweather Promotions are up there to, but they are a step or three down from the tip top of the sport.
But yea I can see your stance with casual fans. Casual fans aren't gonna become subscribers off of UK cards or a bunch of tip top WBSS guys they've never heard of from other countries. DAZN is gonna need a more impressive American/Latino roster of fighters.
Then again maybe DAZN ultimately doesn't need anyone more than the hardcore boxing fans as I've heard many people say idk. So maybe they don't need to impress the casual boxing fans all that much who knows.Comment

Well to me $125M a year warrants attracting casual fans, but if these cats talking about elevator deals with the money or w/e that sh^t is about & they aren't actually giving Hearn $125M a year yet then yea hardcores is all they would likely need to go for currently.
But eventually if they get to spending $125M a year on boxing my assumption would be boxing will need to be bringing in $125M+ in value to the DAZN product & I don't see how you get to that number w/o a nice segment of casuals.
Lotsa speculation at this early point doe & I'm sure DAZN gots a lot of what if's positive & negative that will be considered in the future as or if needed. The way they seem to be attacking the sports world in various countries suggest to me they got their i's dotted & their t's crossed & a plan A thru Z covered.Comment

Okay, celebrities are soooo ****** that out of billions of people on earth, THEY get to be on TV and not moronic plebs like you. If you were so smart, maybe you'd be on TV too? You are a failure. A failure to your father. A failure to your mother and most importantly, a failure to me. Go fist urself too, MATE!Being a celebrity and/or people on tv doesn't automatically qualify you as smart, dumbass. Check mate
.
OP was pretty much saying DAZN doesn't have any decent fights they can make from their stable. Eddie Hearn was supposedly gonna sign some stars from America but hasn't yet. OP would pay for app if Eddie actually signed some top American or Hispanic fighters like he said he would. Bigotry doe

HE didn’t say, by has previously mentioned that date. He said hey were holding off to ensure they didn’t clash with wilder fury previously but that sounds more likely December now anyway.
He could also announce chisora Whyte on dec22nd; which won’t be the big fight in America but well worth watching - chisora and Whyte fights are both usually epic and there last one was unrealComment
