its funny how everyone is *****in on wilder for this move.....


even funnier this morning driving was listening to the boomer show on the radio and they were talking about dazn... they didnt even know how to properly say it and didnt know what was in their product etc.... that its not really well known per say like espn platform etc.....

at the moment showtime/cbs/fox etc are more well known platforms for fighters, any other sports etc

It's not PPV, but it's still on a premium channel. I understand that some have SHO as part of their cable package, so they don't have to pay extra. This fight should've been on free TV.

Every fight should be besides unification fights. AJ vs Miller should be on free TV but it isn't.

i totally agree here.....

If that Promoter/Network does similar match making as UFC I'll be all for it but that simply isn't true. So it's best for fight fans that fighters simply are free agents on fight by fight basis. Especially all the big name fighters so we can get the fights we want.

I don't give 2 F***S about the promoters and networks because they hinder the sport. They should be pushing the best fight the best but it's always with they have to sign a multi-fight deal first. For what and at what cost to us fans?

I don't care for apps because I already have basic cable and I watch other things as well.

All an American fight fan needs is FOX, FOX Sports 1, ESPN, and Showtime. All else is extra

dazn is still new you idiot. it's gaining momentum. showtime is dying and cbs network channels doesn't even air boxing. the fox deal is new and is already doing horrible numbers so much for the exposure lol. you know nothing.

Oh we get it. Like a lot of these fans don't get it. If DAZN had rights to NBA, NFL, GOLF, NASCAR, NHL, NCAA Sports, and etc they would have a shyt load subscribers right now. They literally only offer boxing for $10 a month and it's all streaming with commercials.

Tell me how is that a great deal for me. That means I have to watch it on my phone or laptop. If not have a TV that has a streaming platform that offers DAZN as a download option like ROKU or a FIRE STICK.

Where are you from? Fox is not doing horrible numbers viewership wise. If anything the viewership is on par with a lot of other sports and TV shows. Name one fight that did less than 1 million views on Fox for any fight? CBS owns Showtime and the reason CBS doesn't broadcast boxing is because NCAA sports especially in March.

Showtime is doing great in views from boxing. They rarely put fights on PPV unless it does good numbers. Majority of the American fighters who headline on regular Showtime do great viewership as well.

Don't try and shyt on USA cable networks that have been around for a very long time. DAZN is probably losing money because they have to pay over market value to get fighters.
