DAZN tightens the purse strings. Oligarch not happy with the outrageous spending

[Southpawology]

Network fanboys are so corny

Didnt Hymen do the same thing initially? Pot. Kettle. BLACK.

Foh

No he didn't. He caused everybody else to raise their pay. His fighters are still being paid well. DAZN's pay was artificial and would never last

Blavatnik okayed the overspending

He ok'd it to get results & fighters. They haven't gotten the either outside of Canelo.

Yep. Still not sure why they chose this sport to get subs tbh. It's no secret it isn't very popular.

It has the lowest barrier to entry. And I'm sure Hearn sold them a dream about getting all these already established PBC fighters.

The thing that has held them this long is HBO getting out of boxing. If they'd stayed in boxing where would they be now?

Close to folding up, I'd imagine.....

wasn't Hearn just bragging yesterday about how he can offer Lomachenko insane money to fight Haney?



Guess Blavatnik saw that interview

HBO have their own financial issues tho, where would they be if they had to match dazn money to try and stay in the game.

I imagine dazn would have liked to see Showtime have exited by now as well. Be interesting to see what the upcoming GGG, Canelo & Joshua fights do for dazn.

Signing Golovkin was one of the worst business deals ever in boxing...

HBO didn't have financial problems.

Showtime doesn't have fighters under contract like HBO did so how would Showtime stop showing boxing free up fighters?
