      Check the post underneath yours, this is the saddest bit when it comes to boxing fans. We have those who worships one side, even when it’s evident that they aren’t good for boxing. I use to sing PBC’s praises, that was when they first came unto the scene, since then they have become more political and probably even worse. So if we criticise Top rank then why can’t we with PBC now?

        Promoted by DAZN? Or you meant Team Farmer (Matchroom?)

          I'm already knowing. I don't abide hypocrisy from myself or others. These people are like children changing their ideals when it suits them.

              Why not? DAZN can promote a fight, they can use the service of any promoter like PBC does. So if they want Tank/Farmer and both fighters are happy to work with a lower grade promoter then the fight gets done.

                if they use the service of a promoter than its that promoter that is promoting the fight, not dazn.

                second, the offer came from hearn and was a copromotional deal. there is no way mp would let hearn have any power over a tank fight. he would be relegated to his own fighter and no more. thats why an offer from him is a nonstarter.

                  He's not. Ellerbe and Floyd are.

                  Davis should negotiate to 8 mil and get rid of Farmer. Let Hearn promote him for that one fight. I personally don't care much about a Farmer fight. Give me a more stiffer competition.

                    Man, you idiots keep talking smack about DAZN, while Hearn keeps getting more fighters to sign up to fight on it by the week. Remember, DAZN also has sports like MMA, soccer, football, basketball and others too. It is all over the world with this stuff. So why are all the Amercian boxing fans acting like DAZN is a failure? Is it because it wasn't made here in the states? Do you idiots also want Netflix to fail too?

                      because the purpose of dazn getting into boxing was to enter the us market.

                      skipper has done a nice job pivoting and getting guys himself (golden boy/canelo). most people are just mocking hearn because he was a big fish in a small pond and proven to be out of his league in the us. but idk how anyone can hate on dazn itself. they put on some really nice shows this year for the hardcore fan.
