    Like the guy above said. You're celebrating having to pay for PPV's. How ****** is that?
    PPV Buys in 2018: 1,425,000

    PPV Buys in 2019: 1,410,000
    Not including Spence vs. Porter or Wilder vs Fury 2

    DAZN has literally done nothing to slow down PPV's, by the end of the year, the amount of PPV buys in 2019 will eclipse the amount of PPV buys in 2018. HAHAHAHA. DAZN failed.

      Look at the Spence-Porter PPV

      Spence-Porter (this a regular showtime fight not a ppv)

      Benevitez-Dirrell ( another Dirrell brother gets a undeserved title shot for the 15th time)

      Another pointless Chavez jr showcase

      Lopez-Molina (why?? No point of putting this on a ppv card, instead it should be on the prelims on Fox

      This is supposed to be a big PPV ���� don’t even get me started with Arum and his Top recycle ppv’s
      dirrell has the belt

            That is because the PPV model is the only model that can continue to pay fighters based on what fans are willing to spend.

            DAZN is being subsidized by investors right now when they decide they have had enough of 65,000 fans watching and 3 new subscriptions for a GGG fight they can and will pull the plug.

            That hurts the sport because you will have a subset of boxing fans that where happy (enough) paying 80 for a PPV now used to 20 for a PPV now being asked to go back to 80. A significant number will not go back and are now lost paying fans. See moviepass and theaters to see this effect where the only movies that can make money today are the movies you had to buy advanced tickets for even if you had moviepass. Anything that is a walk up purchase is dead.

                  PPV will never die, it will always be a option BUT it shouldn't be abused and not every fight is PPV Worthy

                    Exactly. Instead of admitting Special ed:
                    1) lied
                    2) failed
                    3) didn’t understand the American market

                    These racists would rather attack you for telling the truth. Even though you’ve done nothing use facts to prove them wrong time and time again. They’re ******s! PPV got even stronger because DAZN hasn’t put out interesting fights. Charging $240 a year for nothing and those suckers are happy to give the money to them lol. We live in some crazy times.

                      Hearn: Canelo/DAZN Deal Will End PPV Boxing In the United States
                      Eddie Hearn believes the historic deal Canelo Alvarez, Golden Boy Promotions and DAZN have struck will signal the end of pay-per-view boxing in the United States. The 28-year-old Alvarez’s 11-fight contract with the new streaming service reportedly could be worth as much as $365 million. It’ll also make the Mexican superstar’s fights available as part of a $9.99 monthly subscription to DAZN


                      Then sit around and watch as six PPV's happen within one year. Tripling the amount of PPV's in 2018.
                      Actually the type of money DAZN is throwing around forced Pbc and Espn to make fights like Spence Porter Spence mikey Crawford Khan into ppvs to pay them big enough purses. DAZN forced these ppvs
