Will we ever see SSR vs. "Monster" Inoue? Is 3lbs. that serious? MAN UP!

[KTFOKING]

Plenty of people on this forum did.

Then that was just ******. Quality fighters with no home base were the exact type of fighters that were meant to go to DAZN.

From what I saw, it was mentioned they wouldn't get the guys Hearn said they were after when DAZN first launched. HBO going out of the boxing business opened everything up for them.

I’m sure this will excite the white nationalists who want to see hearn(S) “take over American boxing” lol. Since no one watches dazn I guess they have to get excited about something

Oh man would I love to see him fight Inoue! I love me some Sor Rungvsai but don’t think he’d be eating his celebratory grilled rat after that one.

They need to get Inoue then we are in business. That kid is the truth.

I'm just looking forward to watching SSR and the rest of the little guys blast away at each other. Don't really care what promotion it is on. I have DAZN, ESPN+ and Showtime. HBO will be getting dropped when True Detective is over...

Don’t you like boxing? What’s wrong with you? :/

This is true. But it wasn't DAZN original plan. Their original plan was to go after top US boxers, hence the DAZN-Matchroom USA moto.
Other than Canelo non of the names push a needle in the US market.

Who cares their original plan they are doing well considering they launched last year July . They are doing better than most expected wouldn’t you say? De la Hoya coming on board definitely helped things.

I’m based in the U.K. so makes no difference to me whether Dazn fails or not as its not available to U.K. viewers but surely as an American Dazn inception is considered good news to your pocket or seeing Hearn fail is more valuable?
