Comments Thread For: DAZN Exec Reflects On Year 1 In Boxing: "We're Learning"

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Almost one year ago to the date, DAZN staged its first ever United States-based card on Oct. 6 when Jessie Vargas fought to a majority draw with Thomas Dulorme. That fight was the platform's inaugural stateside show as part of the eight-year, $1 billion deal it signed with Matchroom Boxing. One week later, Golden Boy joined the cash caravan, highlighted by the unprecedented 10-fight, $365-million deal it signed for the star of the sport in Canelo Alvarez. Then, Gennady Golovin followed this March with a three-year, six-fight contract paying him upward of $100 million.

I hope they learned their lesson trying to treat their top earner like a slave

Correction

Vargas and Dulorme fought to a draw.

Lots of folks criticizing DAZN execs for overspending, but I've been a satisfied customer. Just $100 for all of those fights? At least for this year, its a hell of a deal.

Polarizing stars

They need more polarizing boxing stars, they don’t have enough for Casuals to invest

Good app

I subscribed annually for the Ggg Dev fight and those mentioned in article. Seems like a no brainer with the upcoming schedule. Hopefully 2020 brings more great fights for an even greater value!!

Vargas and Dulorme fought to a draw.

I legitimately had to boxrec it to make sure I wasn't mis-remembering the fight being a draw LOL.

Folks get into their feelings big time don’t they. Getting all moist over other men’s statements lol. I don’t know if it’s youth, mental illness, personality disorders or what but it’s laughable. And your implication of why they though haymon didn’t know anything yet skipper and the dazn crew did was right on the money as well and everyone knows it yet they never want to admit it. Privilege and entitlement mate privilege and entitlement....

Yeah it’s going to be VERY hard to make Canelo fights when you guarantee Jacobs $15 million and then a minimum of $4 million his next two fights when he loses to him???
