DAZN/Hearn reek of desperation making all these “celebrity fights”.

[_Rexy_]

It's a joke, and it's disgusting. Anyone who sticks up for it is nothing but a network groupie. You can't be a boxing fan. It's awful seeing pro boxers have to talk about two ****ing nobodies fighting.

Its short money. Davis is building towards long money. Yeah its 2 million less in cash today but he losses 3 million or more dollars worth of future promotion going on a dead platform.

The only way he loses anything is if he loses the fight to Farmer. Which im sure that's what's going thru Floyd's and Al Haymon's mind....
Only the PBC cheerleaders think Farmer is no match for Davis.
Real unbiased boxing fans like myself give Farmer a decent chance to beat Davis.
And that's the real reason Davis won't accept the Farmer fight.

It sure seems that way
I just can’t stand these celebrity fights period
I wouldn’t give a fugh if they would be doing it on their own but doing with the pro’s just seems to diminish the value of the boxing

I completely agree, and that’s my issue with them. It cheapens the value of the sport.

Its the opposite of desperate actually, its called smart business. Logan Paul vs KSI was the 5th most watched event on DAZN last year. It beat out several huge soccer games and every other boxing event besides AJ vs Ruiz rematch and Canelo vs Kovalev.

It’s undoubtedly desperate...

The only reason they are making these fights is their desperation for subscribers.

They’re not matching up YouTubers because they’ll produce high level action.

Yep. Any supposed “boxing fan” that watches and supports these BS matchups, needs to take a long hard look at themselves.

No doubt you watched it. In fact you're so interested in it that you have made a thread about it and replied multiple times.

hearn will want an option on tank if he wins...just like he did with mikey and hed do with charlo......that's the line theyd use to try to take one of them for good....and that's what hearn wants...he wants to get a pbc fighter over there and have them win, stage their next fight, and then hope he can convince them to stay

on the surface a one night 5 mil deal sounds great to fight farmer...cause im fairly certain tank wins.....but if it comes with an option? is that the best deal for tank? tanks already making 3 mil or so and hes headlining and hes selling 14k in tickets in multiple cities....all of farmers shows combined I don't think have sold 14k in tickets(sarcastic exaggeration but kinda serious)....

tank is progressing towards a ppv fight...you think he should kill that momentum for a couple of extra mil when hes already been building something? to fight a guy nobody knows or watches?

just not sensible

its only an option to MATCH whatever his next offer is. Whats the harm? Does Tank own stock in Fox or Showtime? As long as it does not negatively affect his money, why should he care what network his fight is on?

As a former promoter you know the answer to this. Its power and control.

As a former promoter, if you promoted a young fighter with the long term potential like Tank would you advise him to fight a Hearn promoted fighter, on the dazn network, knowing that Hearn would be selecting the venue, judges and referee?

Would you believe your fighter was getting a fair chance to win?

Never watched it. Didn’t even bother watching Haney or BJS in mismatches on the undercard. I’ll never support something that damages the integrity of the sport.

I also never watched Mayweather-McGregor for the same reasons.

I made this thread because I care about boxing.

Dazn and hearn are trying to make fights and drum interest in general. I don’t now wtf PBC is doing, but it definitely isn’t fights. Just a bunch of btchs on welfare.
