Comments Thread For: DAZN Is Back: Will Enough People Care?

Well for the sake of the fighters fighting exclusively on DAZN...Lets Hope So!

The Subscription Numbers will never increase drastically with "BOXING" being its Top Attraction so fans need to forget about that. The sport of boxing is just not popular enough as a whole here in America to expect fans to pay $20 a month for a APP they will not even open or use more than probably 2 Times a year only when Canelo is fighting. Need the rights to NFL and NBA Games for it to work here in America and to DAZN Credit they have been working hard to try and get the rights to NFL Sunday Ticket which would be huge for that APP

DAZN is not trying to be "Just A Boxing APP" obviously because that will never work long term. As seen on this board daily, Boxing fans are too Fickle to depend on us to Subscribe to that APP

overpaying fighters and actually having the balls to brag about how much they're paying. now people are acting like divas just wanting more and more. boxing took a big hit because of that ishhh

Bingo....I have been saying that for a while now. Dazn has damaged the sport of boxing in the USA.....by taking to an app that no sports fan will ever see and then paying 10 times for than fights and fighters are worth and having no balls to veto easy matchups.
YOU CANNOT GROW THE SPORT ON AN APP.....YOU CANNOT CREATE STARS ON AN APP.
When will some of you nincompoops get this?????

Good luck to DAZN in this endeavor. Hope they get the victory.

I am still impress with DAZN. DAZN took various blows ranging from average to huge, but DAZN still rolling in the punches and at the same time they are holding the fortress well. I hope and wish that DAZN never fall and give us those memorable fights we saw before Covid-19 and in the future.

"DAZN pays Golden Boy $40 million for each fight card headed by Canelo. Golden Boy pays Canelo $35 million of that. This leaves Golden Boy with $5 million plus the live gate" and this is why golden boy tries to lowball canelos opposition or are looking for a lesser opponent who won't require much money. Canelo is getting grossly overpaid and golden boy needs to try and recoup money somehow since they got the s*** end of the stick.

They choose to go with a promoter that alienated in the entire fan base in USA to tAke over the USA.

Bad business

wrong

only the hardcores get caught up in fanboy promoter wars.

The vast majority of fans dont know, or dont care, who the promoter is. They can recognize Don King, and maybe Oscar. Thats about it.......

DEAD ZONE is trash. Anyone who pays for that app is a dope. Al Haymon and PBC were supposed to be dead by now, but it's PBC alone that will be able to save boxing between now and the end of the year. Go ask Weasel Eddie how his U.S. takeover is going.

LOL. Dazn can work as hard as they want for Sunday Ticket. They are not getting it. The NFL partnered with them in Canada and Dazn did so poorly the NFL forced them to partner with a cable company and get it off of Dazn after only 2 weeks.

Do some research before making up stuff.

Didn't really make anything up! DAZN is indeed trying to get the rights to NFL, I agree I don't think it will ever happen but they're trying and John Skipper has said that publicly multiple times


They should try to purse the rights to NFL because it is the biggest sport in the U.S. and it instantly brings a huge following. The issue they have is that NFL don't want to just ****** Games they want for their Games to be on major Networks but have ******ing as a Option for those who maybe can't be in front of a TV on Sunday so they can ****** from Computers and Mobile Devices

NFL Rights is not only hard to get but it is extremely expensive, it is going to take BILLIONS to get the rights to NFL Stuff. DAZN Pitch is that they can help the NFL Grow Globally, maybe that could work since the NFL would love to become more popular globally

Slowly but surely, you’ll see this is an extremely pro (and paid off) pbc site.

You criticize Top Rank ESPN ratings (during the pandemic) multiple times.

You ask of people care about DAZN.

Where are the pbc articles about how Haymon got played by FOX in favor of MLB?

How about criticism of the PPV platform, especially with three or four coming during pandemic?

Criticism of Santa Cruz/Davis not only being horrible on paper (he’ll be three weight classes heavier on fight night), but to make it a PPV? No?

Give us a few teasers and there here comes the PPVs.

Seriously astounding the difference between a Top Rank primetime boxing card and UFC Fight Night on Saturday which had at least 5 tossup, important fights.
