    Some boxing fans will find anything to ***** about...DAZN is GREAT for boxing. We've already got over$100 of fights this year n it's only may. Not only that, but unlike PPV, most times they show the whole damn card! Go DAZN!!!

      I think the 2 Canelo fights are great deals but the other 10 months is it?

      if you're really into boxing, sure. i don't care for the production quality or many of the fights, but the volume is basically unprecedented. lotta boxing, lotta MMA. unless you watched game of thrones in HBO's prime you'd probably feel like you were only paying for boxing, and it's much less fights for the same price roughly.

      i don't even watch a lot of the "low level" cards live any more. i gotta make the best of the rest of my youth while i can, you know? big saturday cards, absolutely, but the days of me sitting down for FNF followed by shobox are pretty much done. DAzn is nice because you can wtach on demand.

        Unless Canelo is fighting someone the caliber of Floyd, none of his fights are PPV worthy, and I'm a Canelo fan.
        What specific fights do you deem PPV worthy in any division if that fight isn't PPV worthy?

          Right now, I don't see any PPV worthy fights, not even Spence-Crawford.

              Everything else they've shown has been FS1, ESPN, ESPN plus, ShoBox, Showtime, FOX, level cards. But they're charging more than than others. If you get the $100 plan it equals out to what Showtime charges.

              Explain to me how paying more for boxing is cheaper. I'm all ears.
              Showtime is like $11 or something so its slightly more. Showtime boxing is a low priority for them so they show it like maybe 2 times a month.

              DAZN is basically all boxing so they have preview shows etc weekly, cards almost weekly. Probably double showtimes output for less money. It's pretty simple.

              I'm internet only so I have hulu live, DAZN, ESPN+, and Showtime (off and on depending on what fights they have coming). So basically $53-64 a month for any channel I'd want and tons of boxing.

                  I can see Davis-Lomachenko or Spence-Crawford being a smaller scale ($29.99) PPV. Other than that, nothing.

                    Hey if you dont like DAZN then dont purchase it. Weve been through this so many times. Its like once a week MotorCity has to say the same negative thing. MOTOR, DONT HAVE IT, you clearly dont like it. But then you are a massive PBC shill so who knows, you prob have it, love it and it works perfectly for you.

                    It is funny how it seems to always the same people who defend anything PBC that seem to have constant problems and gripes with DAZN. Im sure DAZN is still rough around the edges production wise but its very tough to believe a shill like that guy.
