What DAZN fight would have been a PPV fight? The only 2 would have been Canelo/ Jacobs and Canelo/Kovalev. DAZN only has 1 PPV fighter.

Ruiz/AJ 1 and 2

The big boys are still out there spending money

Nickelodeon will broadcast an NFL playoff game. I thought this was an April Fools' Day joke, but here it is on the AP wire: https://t.co/h8EHfE6qEB

Can't hang with the big dogs stay on the porch.

Are the big dogs paying screening rights fees for NFL games that are not taking place?

They own NFL rights in a couple of territories. So they're telling the NFL if their season is delayed they won't pay them. Now imagine going to the NFL and wanting rights in America. Or any major sports rights in America. It hasn't even been a month. Being the first to do it makes them look like they can't handle the big sports here in America. Not a good look

Excellent point, hadn’t thought about that. It does indeed look like amateur hour

They're weirdos. And they're mad at me for not posting while I was banned.

Damn ... that was a loooong months ban mate!

What did you think of the Fury/Wilder rematch? That was some beating the bum basher took there eh?

Ruiz/Aj 1 wasn't ppv quality, it was a mismatch which happened to be an upset

NFL already made them sub out the Sunday Ticket in Canada because Dazn service had so many complaints. NFL isn’t giving Dazn the US Contract. It’s already going to Amazon.

Is this a joke or are you actually serious? This is happening all around the world. If you have a contract with a sport org to broadcast and the season/event is cancelled/postponed/shortened of course they don't get full payment. A deal is worked out, no season - no rights fees, partial season - partial payments.

Do you actually think any broadcaster would just pay hundreds of millions/billions of dollars for nothing, are you insane?

In NY it still would of been PPV

GGG vs. Dervy also

Probably not PPV but the entire Vargas/Garcia card was awesome

[HaymonzPlanet]

Cancel dazn aka dead zone

Anyone that is still paying for dazn is a sucka and a mark
