Why are American boxers so inactive?

With DAZN, Hearn has doubled his dates.
It's not beyond the realms of possibility that his top tier fighters will soon be increasing their activity.
Certainly fighters who are a level below elite, such as the Charlos would be more active under Hearn.
He puts on more shows than anybody else, and that's a fact.
But sometimes boxers themselves prefer to hold off for a different date or opponent for whatever reason.
With Haymons recent deal I expect PBC fighters to become more active tbf.Comment

I would take that bet if we bet they don't fail within a decade.
They could very well fail cuz while streaming is a superior way to view anything not just live sports since you can customize it (which few are doing yet, but they will), unlike broadcast TV, & the technology is gonna take over eventually. The thing is there is no reason to believe DAZN will be the one to conquer the market at this early stage of the game. So they could become a casualty, but its a long ways off from now if they become one.
Well sh^t there's your first problem with why you think DAZN fails. You think its an "online live streaming boxing service". Its not. Its a streaming live sports service. Boxing is merely the most notable angle to it currently, or at least to us it is. Others are watching it for the MMA or soccer (or maybe thats some bs soccer they got on DAZN idk I don't watch soccer) right now I'm assuming. In 3, 5 or 10 years down the line I imagine they'll be showing many more sports & people will get DAZN cuz of some other sport besides boxing.Because no one outside of the boxing circles, know that the online live streaming boxing service even
exists.Comment

They’ve done a good bit of television advertising the last few weeks.
The ads are Michael Buffer (a freaking announcer, not a fighter) sitting in front of a microphone mispronouncing DaysInn about six different ways with a couple of fight clips.
Like literally they’re spending money to advertise the fact that no one even knows how to pronounce their name. Rather than to build up fighters.
Yeah, this is going well.Comment

Prove it. What you stated before is factual & it wasn't correct at all. What you are saying now is an opinion & up for debate.
What are we basing this on?
Whats a "high level, quality event"?
Tell me what are the high level quality events Hearn ran this year in your opinion?Comment

No.
How about you tell me the 40 cards Golden Boy ran this year on HBO.
And if they're so great, why HBO didn't want to commit a budget to it?Comment
