Comments Thread For: Wilder-Fury PPV To Have 3 Fights: PBC, Top Rank Each Get Bout

[Oldskoolg]

Hasn't shown much, if any, of that in 42 fights so highly unlikely this is the fight Wilder turns into Floyd Mayweather.



This is a massive moment for DAZN. If this PPV bombs, they become much much more appealing to fighters - activity, exposure and big money. What's not to like. PPV model under as much pressure as the fighters in this one! No way it does 2m buys tho, that is Arum hyperbole at its finest.

“Exposure” on dazn??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHA!!!!! “And then and then he said exposure on dazn!!!!!!” STOP IT MAN YOURE KILLING ME!!!

why are boxing fans complaining?

Because it doesn’t involve Eddie Hearn....it’s a coloured bloke from the USA and an ashki**** *** getting together to promote a major card on the two top sports networks in the USA and all this is opposed by British nationalists and white supremacists alike

2millon buys?? As much as im looking forward to this fight? I doubt it does anywhere like 2 million.

this is not surprising because ESPN and FOX are both owned by DISNEY. It was only a matter of time before the Disney CEO (Robert Iger) pulled Uncle Al and the Bobfather in a room and told them to work it out or else. If FOX, ESPN and Showtime start to function as one organization that makes all fights possible, it's over for anyone else. And god forbid Dana White brings in ZUFFA boxing with all their money to work with them. Its ov DA-ZASTER!

they could add a 4th fight with 1 guy from each side to keep the "shine" even, if they wanted to.

And it seems
Like Zuffa and TMT are solidifying their working relationship even more....and we all know TMT is a subsidiary of PBC and the haymon umbrella. ZUFFA’s parent company is already Disney via ESPN so even if ZUFFA goes the ESPN+ route and enhances ESPN’s boxing interests that’s a good thing. The only thing dazn has at this point in the USA is boxing...no one in the USA cares about darts, soccer, snooker, curling, bocci balls or whatever the hell else they have on there.....if they never get live football, baseball, or basketball then the American sports fan won’t care. And their overspending in boxing won’t last....eventually the plug will be pulled if they can’t ever make it consistently out of the red. There is a reason they were searching for new investors....

So only a 3 fight card? They better reduce the cost then.

I won't pay Floyd Mayweather prices for this PPV.

Either that or those other 2 fights on the card have to be absolute fire. Meaningful fights between top quality guys.

I’ll take 3 stellar matchups over 1 good one+ 3 filler/showcase matches any day
