DAZN offer lots of fights, American, Asian (in the case of wbss final) and European. They broadcast the fight live when it happens. They also offer repeats and replays, why not just watch American only fights? Perhaps email them and demand the world only fights on American time?
    Americans, ignorantly arrogant or arrogantly ignorant. Either way, the way they think the world revolves around them is incredibly disturbing.

      Just a time zone thing. Realistically Kev you're lucky that you live in America and get most of the big fights at a reasonable time.

      I've been having a stay up until 4am to watch the fights in America for decades. And at this point it's becoming almost impossible for me so I usually have to record and watch in the morning which I hate doing.

        Great concept, but terrible delivery of fights. Time zones don’t matter, they’re fcking up in every aspect.

        The sad part is they’re showing good fights. But they’re clearly amateurs.
        Well I'm sure it's a learning curve for them too

              Dazn streaming is great but they playing sidekick to other events etc is bull**** imo. No one wants to wait 1 hour till some shitty event that we dnt care about is over before we can enjoy our event.

                Fights are ALWAYS gonna be at different times. Its a worldwide sport. I don't think thats a fair thing to criticize them for.

                DAZN not making major fights US time fan friendly while trying to make money in the US market is ****** doe I will say that. Live sports aren't TV shows. There is more of an appeal with catching a sporting event live than hours or days after it happened. Maybe that reality changes at some point, although I'd bet against it happening anytime soon, but its how things are now.

                The Canelo delay was maybe the ******est thing DAZN has done that went down in clear sight. When you got the biggest draw in boxing you don't wait for a couple MMA guys with like ~30 combined losses fight. Didnt, dont & cant understand that move & I highly doubt it brought in more customers than loyal customers it p^ssed off.

                  I don’t need to question anything, and I don’t need to answer to a troll whose existence on the forum is to argue with others non stop, in a very childish and unrealistic manner.

                  NO, your childish cuz you stink of poopoo

                    DAZN has all this power to force fights with money, but supposedly no control over fight location.
                    Childishness deleted.

                    Do you understand why Saudi was chosen? The REAL reason?

                    If they'd done it in the US, Joshua's team would scream setup.

                    If they'd done it in the UK, Ruiz's team would scream setup.

                    A neutral ground made sense - and for a fight this size, they needed a place that had money to throw around. Australia wasn't going to cut it, Japan doesn't care and Russia wasn't going to pay to watch their guy not even be co-main. That left Saudi - where there is money to burn.

                    That Joshua was able to do a 12-0 blowout on Ruiz on NEUTRAL ground left no doubt in anyone's mind. Had that same fight happened in the UK people would have accused the ref of favoring Joshua when he actually did a pretty damn good job.
