    ESPN + experts, need your 2 cents

    I signed up to ESPN+ last night.

    I'm only interested in the boxing. Don't care about the college football, basketball, etc. I'll check out 30 for 30's though.

    Has the production value been worth it? Streams ok without buffering/glithes/fuzzy vid? Great price so not asking for much. Just HD/boxing and replays.

    I'm on the 7 day trial but I just realized there are no boxing replays available? DAZN let's me catch up on the boxing I've missed out on, figured ESPN did as well.

    I had no issue watching their last show. I was watching it on my phone.

    Haven't looked for replays so idk if what you are saying about replays is true, but they got a library there I know & I would hope recent fights are in there. If they aren't thats kinda bs.

    Also yea I'm like you & don't give a f#ck about 98% of the sh^t ESPN+ is putting in my way of boxing. I just wanna see boxing sh^t (& MMA sh^t when the UFC sh^t lands there) so if there is some way to customize this app I'd love to know how to make it more viewer friendly for anyone who knows.

    Thus far I definitely feel the DAZN app is the superior product cuz right off the bat I can click on the boxing button & all the boxing sh^t shows up. Thats what ESPN+ needs right on the top of the home page. Or if its there I need to find it lol.

      I've gotten more stuttering from my DAZN account tbh. That said I don't mind paying 15 a month for both and I think they're both great purchases. And with the replays for ESPN+ you have to look up a fighter's name to get some of their relevant fights. A little inconvenient but it works.

        I had the same problem. Someone said use the ms edge browser & that has worked wonders for me. I was about to cancel DAZN when my 30 days was up with how unwatchable it was live for me.

          I only watched one or 2 shows and it was fine. I watch the Dan Rapheal show also and that's it. I'm probably gonna cancel it now that I have DAZN. Not gonna pay for Showtime, Espn and DAZN every month for limited content

                So I'm trying to customize it, but it's all one giant cluster***. I'll be on ESPN.COM and the free content is mixed with the + content. Also, that is some serious bull**** that I have to enter the dudes name in the search to watch his replay lol

                Its 5 bucks so I'll give it a month or two.

                So it's not its own platform so to speak like DAZN.

                  Not logical at all. Keep a damn library of replays longer than two months for paying subscribers.

                    It's good. Yeah it's like on his office at home or some **** and they use Skype for interviews but it's a good show if you're a boxing fan. He tosses it around with fighters and other journalists about their fights or current topics. Good watch if you got an hour or so to kill.
