    Much like Showtime, HBO, ESPN, Fox, etc.

    Soccer is huge all over the world, except 'merika.

    They're doing fine over all, don't worry.
    Except the fact they don't have rights to any big soccer league. They got MLB rights to some show which should be good, but not really a game changer. Right now they don't have the other content to sports leagues like the NFL or NBA. So they are relying heavily on boxing to set it off and help them gain their subscriber base. They don't have 24/7 content unlike a SHO or HBO.

    Jacobs vs Canelo would be great and all but assure them GGG as well. They desperately need this to happen.

      There will always be down periods in boxing, peaks and valleys. But even still with those swings $9.99 a month really is NOT that much c'mon now guys, people spend that almost DAILY on *****ing starbucks or a pack of cigarettes.

        So far even Boxnations early cards were better and they had no budget

            The main issue is that the best fights to be made are PBC vs Top Rank or Matchroom vs PBC etc.. However a lot of the fights are in house fights or they are house fighter vs over matched non house fighter. This is true for PBC, Top Rank and Matchroom cards.

              You gotta have something else besides boxing every other weekend to keep people signed up. I keep hearing people talk about a new MLB show they've gotten. The average age of a baseball fan is higher than boxing. Good luck getting them to learn how to download the app and stream it to their TV's. These are the type of people who still buy newspapers

              Pretty ridiculous comment.HBO.is a movie based network for T.V shows etc....There's more then enough traffic for fight fans on DAZN for 10 dollars.How you guys call yourself boxing fans is very pathetic.

So far the Miller card was all mismatches, the Canelo card was all mismatches, and this Andrade card is about to be a huge mismatch as well. AJ will probably fight Whyte or Miller in 2019 which will be another huge mismatch on..... DAZN. The future of cherrypicking.
                Nice sig.

                  Try watching a frank warren card if you think matchroom does that!!

                  In all honesty, last 2-3 months matchroom quality has reduced a lot and it probably is not a co-incidence that they have tried to upscale significantly and as a result they are leaving themselves more bare thin on each card, this is more visible in the uk.

                  Having said that Eddie has still put on some real good fights as well and Whyte Chisora should be an absolute ******* next weekend if the first fihht is to go by!!

                    I have the showtime app. They have no fights on the schedule. But I'm watching the Lebron shut up & dribble show. A couple documentaries on there I'm checking out. A good show about the Trump presidency. They got this good music makers show. Tons of stuff for me to watch until that next fight. Worth my $11.99 a month

                    I have the DAZN app. What will I watch from now until the next card a month away?

                      Their dangerous path starts with the ****ty broadcast team, I mean they pulled mora and sugar ray straight out of PBC's failures. There was also an insane amount of c*ck sucking for Canelo after the fight.

                      The fights, I'm assuming, are going to get more competitive. They're not doing anything different as for matchmaking that any of us aren't used to elsewhere.
