    Showtime and HBO actually have good content, though. The shows and movies make them worth the $10 a month.

    ESPN+ isn't on their level.

DAZN is $9.99 but ESPN+ is half the price and offer way more content on a daily basis. There is always something on for you to watch. Other than Canelo big fights, DAZN has nothing big, just look at the next card coming up
          What good cards has epsn put out?

            I recently cancelled my ESPN+ subscription. Pac left Top Rank, and Loma's last fight was on regular ESPN. Crawford is on PPV next. Can't see too many compelling fights on ESPN+ looking ahead in 2019.

                It’s a very questionable PPV but it cost Arum something like five million for Khan alone and Crawford has to be getting at least the same. It’s impossible to put that on regular ESPN or ESPN+ and not take a massive financial bath.

                So realities need to be met. If the money isn't there don't structure their contracts to receive such crazy dollar amounts if you can't swing it Arum.

                If the only way Arum can still deliver is through PPV, then he needs to retire.

It's ****** to compare a premium channel to DAZN, for the matter even ESPN+ which is half the price. DAZN offer nothing on a daily basis compared to other content Showtime and ESPN offer. Other than the Canelo/Jacobs fight, DAZN cards have been garbage, especially Hearn's.
                  i like the espn app a lot more too. But DAZN gives u Hearn Gbp and bellator. Plus the old fight library.

                  But yeah espn is way better. Just as many fight cards plus ufc college football baseball hockey amdnanlot of original programming

                      Yeah I don't get this either, comes off as a bit GREEDY from a Rich Network that is backed by a even richer DISNEY WTF is the point exactly?

                      Not only that but they don't even have fights that they can make that are PPV Worthy at the moment...Crawford vs Khan is not even PPV Worthy so yeah it really doesn't make any sense
