    someone did the math a few weeks back

    at 3mil subscribers, they break even

    no idea if that is correct, but there is a big difference between your figures and theirs

      We will see if this works. DAZN is betting that Canelo alone will drive U.S. subscriptions. They signed a contract to give Hearn a billion dollars and realized they got Andrade and Jessie Vargas for that money. It appears that Hearn was/is to get European subscribers.

      It is risky to bet their entire U.S. venture on one fighter. But if there is one fighter to drive subscriptions, it is Canelo.

        JUst because something is cheaper doesn't mean its better. People pay for what they want. There's 2 to 3 PPVs a year. If it's a big PPV people will pay to watch it. Just because DAZN is $10 bucks doesn't mean people are jumping to subscribe. ESPN+ is $5 and has way more to offer than DAZN and people complain about them. I rather spend $120-140 on 2 big PPVs than spend $120 a year on DAZN to watch garbage fights and a good fight here and there twice a month. I pay for Spotify,Netflix, Prime and Showtime monthly because I actually use it more than twice a month and has content that I can watch or listen to 24/7. Monday -Friday and other times on weekends DAZN has nothing on if there is no boxing. And who cares about Bellator, cricket and Japanese soccer.
        I thought so as well. The maths and the concept just don't look great. I have actually toyed with the idea of subscribing and cancelling till the next event unless they do tie you up with contracts.

          No I cancelled right away free of charge and their is no contract. Got DAZN for a month a saw a few cards. Nothing special. WHen there is a big fight that I'm interested in I will re subscribe and cancel again. It's not even about the money, just don't see myself spending money on something I don't use. I did the same with ESPN+.

                You have the name ZENOBIA on your profile....
                Who's name is that or what does it mean to you?
                In google when one write Zenobia, have different meaning. The one most important is she existed in real life in the history and was the Queen of the Kingdom of Palmira in Rome and she also expanded her Kingdom, but, I took the name of a novel. In the novel Zenobia is a Empire and not the real person of the history. Empress Endora known as the Black Queen of the Empire of Zenobia was a benevolent ruler and was admired in her Empire with her people. One huge continent with another Empire called Holy Lodis Empire governed by The Pope Saladin declare war to take the Zenobia Empire who was small. She note this was a big threat to her Empire and the entire continent. She begged for the neighboring Kingdoms of the entire continent to join her to repel this declaration of war. The neighboring Kingdoms ignore her. She decided to declare war to the entire continent to crush the neighboring Kingdoms to protect the entire continent she love from the big threat and expand the Zenobia Empire for that purpose. She changed completely and the once benevolent Empress Endora become a tyranny and crushed all the neighboring Kingdom in 2 years. She was known as the Black Queen after and that age was called Zeteginea. She repel the big threat of the Holy Lodis Empire. Her tyranny was merciless, greed, ambition took her and the people of the entire continent was suffering in the worst way one can imagine. Little by little the once beaten neighboring Kingdoms join together and took a decade to beat the Zenobia Empire. Empress Endora said the big threat of the Holy Lodis Empire is going to happen again and warned her conquerors to maintain unity in the time of need to repel future attacks. She admitted her wrongs doings to the people and accepted her execution and the people witnessed one final glimpse of the once benevolent Empress Endora one more time before the execution.

                This is a summary of one of the book novels and there are three more. This have some ideas took from the real life history, but as you see, this novel was created in one fictional world.

                The meanings for me of the Zenobia Empire of the novel book are the determination to do the impossible in the face of adversity as a one individual.

                  You're a broke loser who can't afford $15 a month for ESPN and DAZN...
                  And you call yourself a boxing fan.. 😂

                    Oh damn okay! Glad you told me this!
                    My mom's name is Cenobia. With a C not a Z.
                    She's the only person I've ever heard of with that name.
                    So when I seen it in your profile it had me wondering... I never knew any of this.
                    My mom, her parents and me are all Mexican. My grandpa is the one who named my mom Cenobia. I've always wondered where her name came from since I've never heard it anywhere besides her and in your profile.
                    But I'mma have to do some research and tell her everything you told me.
                    Thanks man I appreciate it!
