Comments Thread For: Ryan Garcia Furious at DAZN: It's F--ked Up How I'm Being Treated!

[Citizen Koba]

No sympathy whatsoever kid. There's folk struggling to feed their families and you're not only refusing to fight for a payday higher than you're contracted for but you're claiming that you don't even really need the money anyway.

Maybe the time for this was before you signed your contract?

Sorry to break it to you kid.

Just because you have a social media account, doesn't mean you are a big fighter..

Shakur is getting double that for tonight's fight.



10,000 x $20 =$200,000
DAZN could make that money easily with a Garcia fight. You telling me 10,000 people wont buy subs to watch his fight? Throw in some yearly subs. Let's say 1000 x $100= $100,000
That's $300,000 total. And these numbers are extremely low. Im making them low to prove that Ryan is correct here.

I think DAZN are in money saving mode right now. I am not sure how many subs cancelled since March, but it is obvious they are feeling the pinch. With ESPN or Fox it will just be business as usual with ad revenue. Until arenas are filled again, fighters will have to take less than what they are used to.

I do not think some of you realize just how bad of shape Dazn is in.

I've said it before & I'll say it again...maybe Ryan SHOULD do sh^t outside of boxing full time. I can't imagine many cats who could make more money outside of boxing than in boxing would be a boxer.

That said $200k for a likely much lesser opponent than Linares seems like a fair amount. Idk what he was asking for or expecting but $200k don't seem like an insulting offer.

True but my point is a Garcia fight will bring in more revenue than $200,000. Way more than that. They're losing a ton of subs & this is a good way to bring them back.

$200K for someone like Ryan, who hasn't done anything, is actually too much money in these tough times.

200k for a tune up fight. This kid loves to complain.

Maybe he's going for the heel role.

The folks who dig him for stuff outside boxing are gonna side with him no matter what probably. The hardcore fans are never gonna love him like that so might as well become the bad guy hardcore fans root against & watch to see him lose.
