Davis-Farmer, do you prefer DAZN or PPV

[Sweet Scions]

How is this even a question? Presumably literally anyone would prefer to pay less for the same fight, thus making the answer obvious (whether that's forking other a recurring modest monthly subscription fee like a normal human being who isn't forced to choose between that and food, or doing silly one-off subscribe-and-cancel nonsense like a twelve year old carefully allocating their allowance, lol)...

and yet...boxingscene!

Naw I got money I don’t need to do anything illegal for the rest of my life. Unlike you who cry about paying for PPV. You bum fans who don’t want to pay for PPV and want everything free need to find another sport.

When did I cry? 🤣 tank and farmer aren’t ppv fighters. Neither are Errol and Porter. It’s a greedy cash grab. If da homies are gonna get together I will order it. If not I go to dubs and see it free. Why reward these guys for fake fake Ppvs.

Like a few posts back the dude said anyone who prefers it on ppv over DAZN is either a liar a tard or an emotional female with an agenda. He got it right

[killakali]

Lol, it's all of the above probably...
I mean who in their right mind would wanna pay $80 for a ppv fight when they can pay a quarter of that or even less to watch the same fight?? And it's not about having money or not. It's about common sense.
But all these idiots on here saying they prefer to pay ppv sound ****** as fucc saying that! Nobody believes them idiots!
Most of them are Al Haymon nuttrider's who will say anything that supports anything Al Haymon does,......
They aren't real boxing fan's. They some Al Haymon groupies!

PPV.

Don’t want to pay $20 for an iffy stream.

PBCtards can afford 4-6 yearly PPVs but can't afford a decent internet connection?

What is the second biggest fight that has been on DAZN minus Canelo vs Jacobs? If you are going to say Joshua/Ruiz I, then that absolutely wasn't bigger in North America than Pacquiao/Thurman. Not even close.

Different ways to measure it. I suppose you're referring to PPV revenue, which DAZN, as a subscriptions service, doesn't collect.

We don't have the numbers, but I'd be shocked if (1) the gate for Joshua/Ruiz I wasn't larger, (2) the viewership, official and unofficial, of Joshua/Ruiz I wasn't larger, and (3) the fighter purses for Joshua/Ruiz I weren't larger.

And that's without mentioning the impact and coverage given to both fights after the fact.

Right? If your connection qualifies as "first world", which is not a strenuous requirement, there should be no issue whatsoever with the streams. Being dependent on McDonald's wi-fi could be a hurdle, I suppose. Or not not owning a single device capable of receiving the stream. In 2019. (How are you accessing NSB? The public library)?

There is NO way in America was Joshua/Ruiz nearly as big as Pacquiao/Thurman. Viewership numbers? I mean a peak of 700k watched Canelo/Jacobs. I doubt Joshua/Ruiz got nearly the amount of viewers as Canelo/Jacobs here. And doing 500k PPV buys>>700k viewers on DAZN.

Fighter purses? I mean Joshua was going to get the Sky Box Office money and was still going to do over 700k PPV buys even with the fight being at 4 am.

Let's not get this twisted now, Joshua vs Ruiz was just another fight here. The odds were 11 to 1 going in and it was seen as an mismatch. That fight was not bigger than Pacquiao/Thurman.

Do they ever reply that you can just turn the volume down and the commentary goes away?

lol, great comment.

Watching via an app does allow for a lot of features a standard broadcast doesn't though like alternative commentary streams.

With the money dazn are throwing around you'd think they could have a couple commentary choices, couldn't they pick up some of the HBO talent? I can't get dazn so not really sure who they have.

the licensing fee wouldnt be so big that it would need to be ppv. thats just **** talk
