    Damn, sounds like Hearn is on da outs w/t DAZN

    I’m starting to believe that it isn’t just Oscar and Canelo who are on the outs w/t DAZN. Just saw an interview with Hearn on IFL TV where he is asked about the Garcia vs Campbell fight, it appears though he isn’t happy w/t the arrangement as he admitted that he wanted the fight in the U.K. but Golden Boy wouldn’t bulge and that it will be a Golden Boy promoted card with no other Matchroom USA fighters on the undercard. Yikes, have a feeling Skipper flexed on Hearn and told him to take the deal Golden Boy was offering Campbell or else. Guessing, DAZN owner Les Blatvanik is tired of Eddie’s endless spending for mediocre talent that isn’t obtaining any subscriptions for the platform. I also noticed in the interview w/t Hearn was that when Canelo was brought up. Hearn said that even though their both under the same platform in the US he has no clue what’s going on w/t Canelo next fight, LOL. Sounds like Eddie being kept at arms length nowadays by DAZN management team. Starting to look like the beginning to an end for both Hearn and DAZN in the US.

    Yeah but Eddie can act naive on purpose regarding GBP business. In the end, Ryan Garcia got the pull assuming his 7mil followers are legit.

      The American boxing establishment closed ranks on DAZN and Hearn and its to boxing detriment.

      They want to keep the days of 100 bucks for Canelo vs B level opponents twice a year

      It's sad but you could see it coming, DAZN came in with an exciting potential change up and the US didn't want to know.

      UFC is going to continue growing and boxing will be a fringe sport in 10 years time.

          That fight was never going to be in the UK, no one here knows who Ryan Garcia is. That was just the angle to get GBP to pay for the fight

                You think DAZN is a US company?

                  Theyll never get that into their heads.

                  The reason Hearn aint saying much about DAZN is because its getting beta tested around the world. He's got a load of international dates that hes sitting on announcing til the worldwide roll out is announced.

                  US cards he has 2 in October, 1 in November and December. Pushed the Garcia/Campbell card onto GBP as his cards are already worked out.

                  Wait til the international roll out to see if Hearn is really out of DAZN. People talking **** when they dont really know whats going on

                    The proof is in the pudding.

                    Dazn is having trouble because nobody in America is subscribing. And that was before covid.

                    Not even canelo could bring people in.

                    Its over for the app. Boxing is a saturday night party/bar sport.
