What are you talking about Bob? @HBOboxing is the strongest brand in boxing today, pulls in the best ratings bar none. @StephenEspinoza is doing good things at showtime as well. #whowatchesESPN+

If Oscar didn't have Canelo he'd be in deep trouble.

If they arnt paying you, they should be. That sounded right from the script

I agree, they should be paying me.

But no, I'm just a satisfied customer who is very happy with the DAZN plus the price. **** for buck!

You pay for entertainment idiots, you go to the movies, pay for your tickets, food. You get good fights and pay for PPV, never dead, the Golden Girl is just bitter, you were forced to put Canela in a meanful fight by the Dead Zone, your days are numbered, lolllllllllll

So many ****ing haters on here. Be glad he was able to work out a deal for the biggest cash cow in boxing to get a major deal and was able to get his fighters on the same network with good paydays.

At the end of the day he's laughing because he's banking bank with his fighters.

I’m going to agree without DLH for about the first time ever. i’ve Been saying it for a long time now, DAZN and the other streamers on their way to the party are changing the game and PPV is at last going to die. Hopefully it also begins to reduce the corruption and strangle hold that a few players - with no interest in the viewing public’s satisfaction - have had on the sport for decades.

But you're paying 120 a year and that's the same as buying 2 PPVs which is usually how many meaningful fights on that I'm willing to buy a year.

The deal really is great for the company and canelo there isn't any fighters with any star power to sell a lot of ppvs other than ggg no Puerto Rican fighters for the rivalry there stuck with Jacobs charlos Andrade Saunders I doubt they would be able to sell enough ppvs to match or surpass the 33 million guarantee from dazn with those fighters

[El Gitano]

He also said AJ would fight on DAZN. I doubt AJ will fight Fury or Wilder on DAZN, PPV for sure.

I planned on just getting the free trial for the Canelo fight and then canceling but I’ve kept it around.
I like the app, it’s clean and easy to use.
I usually turn the sound off and watch some old fights while I’m working.
Not sure about the economics vs the premium cable or PPV model but I feel I’m getting a good value for how much I use it.
