    DAZN better never bow down to the UFC again

    The wait until the main event was beyond ridiculous. How do you expect subscribers to be captivated by your product if you have them sitting around for ages between fights?

    At least have some fill-in fighters on standby just in case. So that your customers don't fall asleep or die of boredom.

    That was so bush league last night. An embarrassment to the sport.

    I agree with you completely doe.
    First time I've heard of it I was like, "Who tf is this Dana White clown?"
    Who cares about UFC if you are a boxing fan?

      I agree. A buddy and I went to the theater to watch it and by the time the damn thing started I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as I normally would. Next time there is a MMA event at the same time I will not pay for DAZN.

      And another thing that really pissed me of were commercials and advertisements between every damn round for the Ruiz Joshua fight. I go to ppv so I can see highlights in between rounds and hear what the trainers are saying. DAZN, that was a bs broadcast, something I'd expect from free TV fight. I miss HBO more and more....

        100% agreed man. A horrible undercard and all that time-filling waste of time chatter was horrendous. As was the very su****ious "fight" itself.

            I thought it was a decent idea when i first heard about it. But it played out terribly.

              Booo hooo it was on a bit late booo hooo. Maybe if American Boxing stopped getting people in to butcher the American national anthem wed get to the fights quicker. Where do you find these singers and which idiot keeps telling them to try sing it like Whitney Houston.

                at first I wanted the fight to start but I REALLY wanted to see that Masvidal vs Diaz fight so I was happy that I got a chance to watch it. I love both sports and and when one ppv looks out for the other so we can watch both, it's a wonderful thing. Then you had the Berchelt/Sosa fight on ESPN(I put it on the dvr) and it was a great fight with action from both sides for the few rounds..

                  Lol at you thinking that the reason DAZN did that was because they were 'looking out' for the UFC

                    I look at all MMA federations. Bellator is like a nursing home where past their prime fighters go for last paychecks. Invicta is cool and the PFL has some good cards on ESPN+. The Bareknuckle fights are great too. If someone is throwing punches, more than likely I want to see it. NOw I obviously love boxing more, but I just can't turn down a great MMA fight
