    well yeah that's my point

    and I think DAZN could force something on golovkin...they just don't want to...they want to "protect" canelo/golvokin 3....they've already overpaid for that fight and it still hasn't happened

    canelo cant be forced to do things....but I think golovkin could be....hes not on the level of canelo.....but DAZN wants to protect that matchup anyway they can and hope they can talk canelo into it

      There's a reason why Floyd fought on Cinco De Mayo and not MLK day every year.

        I know you will argue that only the US matters, but DAZN also offers boxing from the
        - UK
        - Italy and now also
        - Spain

        Granted, that italy and spain can't produce big cards, because their talent pool is limited, but I give credit to Matchroom/Hearn for developing boxing in those countrie and hope they will launch Matchroom Germany in the near future. It certainly makes boxing more internationally.

        - They werent able to get any of the popular black fighters from PBC, but it's not like they didnt want those fighters. They tried, but didnt suceed.
        Still, they got Haney, Andrade, Farmer, Hunter and Hooker and have prospects like Austin Williams, Anthony Sims Jr., Otha Jones and Charles Conwell.

        - they bought the rights for the WBSS, which is not catered to mexicans and mexican-american fighters.

        - The three flagship boxers of DAZN are Canelo, Joshua and Golovkin. Only one is mexican.

        - They also have a fair share of eastern europeans boxing on DAZN: Golovkin, Usyk, Povetkin, Kuzmin, Bivol, Hrgovic, Gassiev. Plus their prospects: Giyasov, Yeleussinov, Madrimov.

        - those youtube circus fights are catered to a younger audience who might (maybe not) get interested in boxing.
        Canelo AJ the two biggest stars right now by FAR!!! 3rd place isn't even close. Well maybe GGG is somewhat close.

        I like the fact they're working with Bob Arum and Al Haymon.

        Kovalov
        Garica
        Sergiy

        Don't know why Charlo can't cross the street for Canelo or Andrade???

          charlo would cross the street...for canelo and probably golovkin....problem is DAZN wont do it

          but they'll offer charlo to fight the guy nobody watches or knows or really cares about...which is Andrade....strange that they have this guy, Andrade, but he cant get a fight with the guys on DAZN and they have MW names galore

          imagine this....imagine spence is Andrade...hes got no brook...no mikey...no porter on his resume(andrades res stinks)....hes got danny, pac, Thurman etc fighting under his banner....but his next fight is against Sebastian formella and hes out here offering jesse vargas 6 mil to come over to the pbc for a fight

          how nuts does that sound?

            I think they realized after some time that without African American fighters they couldn’t tap into that base of fans, a group that has shown a willingness to spend money on boxing when fighters from our community are given the spotlight.

            DAZN has tried to correct that with huge offers for African American fighters but these people aren’t dumb- they know the money comes with strings attached.

            Boxers are carefully weighing going to DAZN to fight a DAZN fighter where the promoter hand picked the venues, judges, ref and had complete control of the event. That is a recipe to get robbed.

            You can’t just throw money at boxers and expect them to jump. They want control and power just as much as money and DAZN can’t give them that.
            What strings attached??? Jacobs and Kovalov hustled them into getting 2-3 fight deals worth around $20 million with the Canelo fight???

            M. Garcia getting $7 million for one Vargas fight...

              I think they'll do it for Canelo but not GGG. They want that GGG/Canelo 3 fight soo bad it's not even funny.

              If Charlo would beat Andrade I have no doubt the media and fans would be all over Canelo. Many writers already even stated that numerous time like why is Andrda/Charlo just standing around...

                  I like to see where they are getting their stats.

                    yup DAZN wants canelo/golovkin 3 very badly...they've been overpaying golovkin for it the whole time so far....they need it

                    sooner or later though you have to take care of your own guys when you have a loaded division.....Andrade just sitting there not being able to get a fight looks awful

                    charlo is understandable over there right? I mean hes the Crawford of the pbc....yet everyone seems to give Crawford a pass....

                    but Andrade sitting there looks su****ious and awful...at least to me....
