Comments Thread For: Hurd: I Turned Down Hearn's DAZN Offer, Haymon Doing Better

[killakali]

What about his comments about ESPN? How exactly is that relevant to what I said?

I had it in my post. Let me rephrase it. What do u think of Hurd saying it’s better to fight on ESPN than fight on FOX?

What I think about it? Nothing. What should I think about his comments?

[sicko]

I sure he doesn't want to fight somewhere in Kansas

No but seriously, PBC is why we even know who Hurd is so he is going to be loyal and rightfully so while other people just want to come in and take fighters that they did not discover and did not put money behind to build up

Hurd is a great story, a guy working at a Grocery Story to now a Unified World Champion!

Could it be interpreted that he wants to make a move to espn ?

There was literally no reason For him to even mention ESPN

He legit came up the hard way and was far from one of Al's top prospects. Hurd pretty much accidentally got to the top lol. Wasn't a great amateur or anything but fought on a bunch of club shows and kept improving and delivered when he got his shot on SHO Box against Galarza in a fight he was the underdog in and then against Molina on the UC of Thurman/Porter.

Does he want to move to ESPN? You tell me.

Super random that you would add that to a post where it was completely irrelevant from what I was talking about lol.

The major names as well as the top prospects/ contenders will never leave Haymon? Why, because they are all getting a piece of the total revenue generated by there fights down to the popcorn purchased at the fight in addition to their fight purse. If you haven't noticed, they all have promotional companies. Spence, Porter, Santa Cruz, Garcia, Broner, etc. Unless someone is willing to cut them a bigger slice of the pie, they're not leaving. Only those fighters needing to take on a promoter to get to the belts or wanting more activity, do so but the top guys still don't leave him.

If that’s true then DAZN is practically in a similar predicament. They'll surely lose money on their 2nd biggest star Canelo, as his way overpaid salary is nothing more than their advertising budget designed to lure PBC fighters to their platform. This strategy seems to be backfiring already as no one notable wants to go. They should have learned this lesson from Ward/RocNation.

As far as their #1 cash cow Joshua, well even the Brits r getting tired of the same two-man-can rotation of Chisora and Whyte. Hern’s desperate, probably a little concerned about losing his poster-boy job for
Len Blavatnik's Access Industries, aka DAZN

Well waddell and Reed investors that bankrolled pbc have already sued forn misappropriation of funds. It's a black hole which is why I suspect there is no activity, it costs too much to have these guys fight each other, they're not canelo type draws!

As for canelo being paid as advertisment, don't you think 350 mil is a bit steep for advertisment? He is the biggest draw in boxing which is why they took him in..

And as for not being able to draw pbc fighters to dazn, they're literally BEGGING to fight canelo at this point. No doubt encouraged by Al who knows they're only worth that massive cash if they're fighting a true cash cow.

Could be simply a typo. Why put so much emphasis on hating and degrading ?
