    You said HBO would be around and PBC would fail. Spent 2 years saying it. I'm 2-0. You're 0-2. Why would anybody listen to you?
    Have you paid your bets to Robbie Barrett yet? Is PBC profitable? Or better yet why don't you answer my question and stop deflecting where in the article YOU posted says DAZN is hemorrhaging money? the article YOU posted doesn't make that case. Matter fact even BOXINGSCENE disagrees with you which is why they hijacked and renamed your thread to give it a proper title reflecting the news instead of the BS click bait troll shyt you posted.

    FYI just hours after you said they are hemorrhaging money Forbes announcing they won the rights to more sports content.

      ... the article above makes it a little bit clear...

      ... in fact, back in October 2018, it was already announced that:


      "Sir Len Blavatnik, majority shareholder of DAZN Group through his Access Industries holdings company, is reportedly plotting to split the sports media company in half in order to intensify his focus on DAZN, the over-the-top (OTT) sport streaming service.

      DAZN Group, which was known as Perform Group until a restructuring and rebranding in September, comprises of two distinct brands: DAZN and business-to-business service provider Perform Content.

      According to a report in British daily newspaper The Daily Telegraph, Ukrainian-born billionaire Blavatnik is looking to sell the Perform Content side of the company in order to target his investment at DAZN, whose expenditure is ever-increasing as it seeks to become more dominant in the sports rights marketplace."


      http://www.sportspromedia.com/news/d...erform-content
      yup I posted the article from Financial Times which Boxingscene just jacked and rewrote. This hemorrhaging BS when they restructured the holding company and started shopping Perform before they even launched DAZN in the US and before they inked Canelo. So this was already in place. Even Forbes did a article saying they were going to sell of pieces back in Oct because they want to be in the sports streaming space. This is basically like a rich man buying a brand new house and after he does puts his old house up for sale at a higher price then he bought it for. then months later when he sells some idiot saying well he's selling the house see he's broke. When in reality he already has a new house, and is in the process of buying another vacation home and a sports car. Even boxingscene hijacked his own thread and renamed his post title because he was misrepresenting what the article is saying.

          In Canada These rights are owned by NBC in the U.S. Not a single serious sport in the U.S. will put their content on an app when real networks are paying tens of billions to acquire live sports


          How is HBO boxing doing?

          You're clueless. Always wrong

            u just can’t comprehend. I used to pay $120 a year for DAZN. Now I pay $100 a year. I pay $20 a year than I used.

            Now do you get it?

It’s good in other countries because the content they offer is big there but cricket and soccer not big over here
              DAZN this morning just outbid Canada's ESPN to get the rights to Premier League.



              DAZN has also been linked to be one of the favorites to land NFL when they opt out their Sunday Ticket deal with Directv later this year. The only reason DAZN hasn't already bid on the other major sports is NOT because they don't have the money or because they don't want to. It's because the other US sports are all in the middle of binding contracts with networks. They overpaid for Boxing because it was the only sport available and to get their foot in the door in US while they bide time and wait for the other major sports to become free agents. They already have NFL, NBA, major soccer rights in other countries on DAZN. Boxing is not the end game for their sports content in US, and US is not the end game for DAZN. They are already successful in other countries. US makes up a small piece of their global brand and they have proven if content is available they can bid huge amounts to get it from traditional networks in other countries.

              Success long term in the US will have NOTHING to do with boxing. You could have all the boxers in the world all under DAZN and still it will make up only a small fraction of the sports audience in the US. Success in the US will be determined in years to come if they can get those top US sports rights. That's why people trying to say this boxing investment will break DAZN is laughable. It's a drop in the bucket to the money they have already invested in other sports. And US is just a tiny factor Globally.

                Didn't you say no serious boxers would EVER sign with DAZN? Then they went and landed the biggest PPV star in boxing... Canelo. You said they are hemorrhaging money yet hours later they just beat out TSN to win the bid for another major sports right deal. LMAO

                And even boxingscene disagrees with you that's why they hijacked and renamed your thread title to accurately describe the article you posted. LMAO

                This blew up in your face Forbes reported back in Sept they renamed the control group and put Perform on the sale block before they even launched DAZN in the US. So this sale has nothing to with US failing or succeeding. Debunking the entire premise you created LMAO

                  You are wrong. You have been consistently wrong for the 3 years I've been. Long winded posts of being wrong. You've never made a dollar without punching a clock. I haven't punched a clock in over 10 years. There is nothing you can tell me about business. And that's evidenced by me consistently being correct (don't forget i said they were raising their prices a cpl months ago) and you being consistently long winded and wrong. You sat on here for years writing long winded posts why HBO would succeed & PBC would fail. You are always wrong. Your record proves it.

                    It's undoubted that 'DAZN USA' as it's liked to be called here is losing money at this stage, but that is going to be offset by the profits DAZN are making in other nations/regions.

                    Thus them selling off other assets is nothing more than an attempt to expand. Likelihood is they're raising additional capital in order to help acquire the big sports in the US to try and make more of a splash there.
                    If they are one entity then why don't they have the same content? They are gonna end up cutting off the dazn usa finger to save the entire dazn hand.

                    And based on you saying "there" for the US lets me know that you are not from or in the US so you can't even help them be successful at all.

                    dazn has not made a splash at all. And they will never get the big sports because they not competing with Disney

                      Have you paid Robbie Barret? You know because you were wrong! the entire premise for you saying they are hemorrhaging money is WRONG. They put Perform on the sale block back in last year before they launched DAZN in the US but you didn't know that before you posted your nonsense. You lied about what the article you posted was saying and now trying to deflect because it blew up in your face with Boxingscene hijaking and renaming your own thread title and the company you said is hemorrhaging not even 1 day later won a major sports right bid. How is this possible they out of money according to you. LMAO
