LMAO look who's on the cover of ESPN's magazine for April.

That's cool, but they still did AJ wrong with the interview! Print business is not doing well! They need Joshua and Miller on First Take and SportsCenter! Big Baby should be on Stephen A.! NYC should be out in full force for Big Baby!

They are all under pressure and that's why you see these types of responses. Hearn said he couldn't believe Arum put a Bulgarian against a Romanian in the main event but obviously this was to showcase Pulev as an future opponent for Fury. And ESPN just has too many dates so you will get some lackluster cards like this one. That along with March Madness led to the worst rated show for the TR on ESPN series.

but I'm flattered that Bob's on the offensive and attacking us in the public eye because it means we're doing something right," Hearn said.

He does this to Haymon all the time, does that mean Al is doing something right?

As the near owner of the Welter Weight division? Must be, what's your point?

PBC/DAZN and ESPN all have more dates than top quality fighters.

That's the thing, more dates equal less quality shows. And that's fine as long you mix in enough quality.

But really it's all three networks/platforms that have too many dates and not enough quality fighters. That's what happens when there is this much division in boxing. You have damn near two shows a week now a days and that is the worry in bringing in fans. Those fans see the same non-quality match ups and wonder this is the best boxing has to offer?

Lmao Dazn should not be talking viewership with anyone.

Lol I was thinking the exact same thing

Hearn was obsessed with putting haymon out of business when he stared Matchroom USA. His whole idea was to steal away pbc’s talent. He is still trying to lure tank and wilder to dazn. Hearn has no moral high ground to stand on. There’s no difference between the methods of Arum and Hearn, they are both shifty promoters. There is one difference, Hearn is a foreigner

[CocoonOfHorror]

Hearn was criticizing the Wilder-Fury PPV numbers after AJ-Povetkin was on on DAZN and there were 15,000 US subscribers. And that was when you could get a month of DAZN for free.
Only 15,000 people bothered to sign up to watch AJ for free. And Eddie was saying that if Wilder-Fury didn't do a million PPV buys in the US that it would hurt Wilder's negotiating position. SMH.

It's nice that the DAZN subscriber base in the US has increased from 15k to 80k, but that means they're making say $12 million per YEAR on subscriber fees while paying $100 million per year for their MLB show, maybe $60 million per year to AJ, about $60 million to Canelo, say $20 million to GGG. And that doesn't include all the advertizing, WBSS, all the other boxing purses, MMA, soccer, etc. How deep do the DAZN pockets have to be to keep this up???
