I'll be honest I believe this is 2 steps forward but 5 steps backwards. There is no denying the good in such an idea from the exclusive content, fight vaults and live fights it's a great concept but to tie the fight politics into that service takes away from the network's potential. this is promotional wars all over again except this time without 3rd party networks like HBO, the ridiculous rule of "sign with me or you can't fight AJ or Canelo" will kill future fights and take away from his fighters legacies because it's directly affecting fights we want to see, it's a devastating road block to Boxing's future, even Arum is willing to talk but Hearn is on some other ****.

are you poor? -
It's brilliant for boxing fans. Unless you prefer paying much more for individual pay per view fights at rip off prices.
Plus Dazn will have pretty much all the big names soon anyway.Comment

Do you lack understanding? I said it was a good service because of the live fights, the fight vault and other exclusives but bad for Boxing because in order to fight Canelo or AJ you have to sign to DAZN and that's something that everyone we want to see those guys fight WONT do, therefore DAZN is blocking mega fights and doing it worse since they have their own network unlike PBC and Top Rank. Are you dumb? at no point did I complain about the price or anything financial for you to ask me that.Comment

I get all of that but we wont ever have Mayweather on there, we wont have PBC fighters on there, we wont have Top Rank fighters on there etc we wont have independent guys like the Charlo's or Mikey on there we gotta settle for seeing AJ and Canelo matched only against those whom Eddie Hearn can sign but he can't sign them all. the way things stand right now we wont ever get to see Wilder VS Joshua and it will be DAZN and Eddie Hearn's fault.Comment

That's exactly my point it's already very difficult to make fights but with this new DAZN network/promotion the fights wont happen at all, it wont be a matter of difficulty there won't be no Les Moonves to come in and shake his wallet around and make a fight happen it just period wont be possible unless Wilder sign's to DAZN and that's not gonna happenComment

We don't have DAZN here so i can't judge. What i do know is competition is great for boxing. PBC was been show here and a lot of people sat up, they had to revisit their sh it. DAZN is making others sit up too, i get what you mean by the "You have to sign with DAZN to fight one of their fighters" but that happens anyway in this sport.
Hopefully mandatories or purse bids would put pay to that. The only fight that would be tough to negotiate would be voluntary fights.Comment

Isn't the PBC actually the in house organization ? Fights were being blocked by them with Haymon , fights are still being made with non DAZN fighters so what's the purpose of the thread other then vague agenda of PBC is good and DAZN is a good idea but won t work ? HaComment
