      That was a joke. How you going to make the main event fighters and everyone who paid to be there or for the app wait around for nearly 2 hours for another sports ppv.
      I wouldn’t think there would be that many people who just paid $65 for the ufc that would then pay another $20 to watch one boxing match that started at midnight anyway.

          DAZN is completely incompetent. Golden Boy is completely incompetent. So together, they're a dangerous combination.

          Boxing PPVs have always been 9PM. UFC PPVs have always been 10PM. If DAZN didn't want the Canelo fight head to head with the BMF fight, no problem. Just time your event properly, start the main event at 11:30 and it'll be over before UFC's main event starts.

          Instead, these incredible morons decide, hey, our event starts EARLIER, so let's put our main event on AFTER theirs?!? Complete lunacy. When DAZN inevitably crumbles and all of the ****roaches scramble, remember last night. Remember those 90 minutes of nothing. One minute for every major mistake DAZN has made since launching.

            Yeah that was really ****** good luck getting people to pay $20 again to sit through that and commercials between rounds

            Yesterday didn't feel like as big of an event as it should

              I could care less about the DAZN/UFC drama. I do like the idea of spacing out events, HOWEVER, that long wait was unacceptable.

              Btw - you label this as "bowing down to UFC", because I assume you're on the "DAZN is the devil" bandwagon? In reality, typically the premier event takes place last, so in effect, DAZN was trying to show they're "bigger", or whatever.

              In any case, that wait was horsesht for the fans and for the fighters. Unacceptable.

                I'm not on any "DAZN is the devil" bandwagon. I paid for a yearly subscription.

                But waiting almost 2 hours between fights is completely unprofessional and not a good way to treat your customers.

                  exactly try getting the pbc funboys to understand.
