Please expand on this great relationship that Hearn and Skipper had in the past. Please explain just how strong those two are together!!
Are you kidding me? Did you really just ask that? Would DAZN have hired Skipper if he didn't know Hearn? Dude, this is John f'n Skipper who was running ESPN. DAZN is trying to get major sports rights to the NFL/NBA/etc. This is a man known as a deal closer and one of the sharpest guys in the business. It goes without saying why DAZN targeted him. I don't know why you Brits continue acting like boxing is going to be the end all be all of DAZN. Boxing is purely a niche sport over here, don't get it twisted. The success of DAZN in the states will come down to attaining rights of other big sports league. If they are to get part of the Sunday Ticket, they will triple the amount of subscribers they have right now within hours.
Hearn was a complete non-mutha f'n factor in Skipper coming on aboard.
