    DAZN should try to pick up Glory Kickboxing

    It looks like Glory doesn't really have any media partners in the US right now:


    The only way to watch their next card in the US is to buy the PPV on Fite TV.

    DAZN has:
    Matchroom boxing
    Golden Boy boxing
    World Boxing Super Series (if that's still a thing)
    Bellator MMA (#2 MMA promotion)
    Major League Wrestling (#5 US wrestling promotion behind WWE, AEW, ROH, Impact)

    And that's about it for combat sports (not that MLW is a real sport anyway). They had a deal with BKFC, but they backed out and launched their own app instead.

    Glory is the #1 kickboxing organization in the world and it'd be nice to have some more content to watch on DAZN.

      No, they went into a receivership and restructured but never actually filed for bankruptcy.

      They are running a PPV on December 19 so they're still around.

      They may not be profitable but they still have the biggest collection of talent in kickboxing and it's not like there's anything else to watch on DAZN. They should try to pick up as many combat sports as they can. Get some Lethwei, some Muay Thai, some Sanda, submission grappling, bare knuckle, whatever they can get.

        That would be a powermove for sure, bur these guys in charge usually have no brain or business acumen.

          Honestly it would be great for dazn bellator and glory itd give glory exposure and a steady network . it gives dazn n bellator the kickboxing market with abilities to let stable grow growing all 3 plus easier doing crossover with boxers signed under dazn imagine if ngannou masdival went bellator n crossover vs aj or ggg canelo ect. Ppl like shields can eventually go to bellator . Dazn needs a ppv format like dazn plus an extra 20 for subscribers to order ppv quality fights and 70 for non subscribers. Add in if glory brought back spong and spong holzken to compete and go between them bellator and matchroom boxing also expanding the brand. For bellator and kickboxers need higher pay so more exposure should add to such. Lastly dazn needs to somehow come to cable or atleast get a talk show and or alot of slots on shows to help build there brand show highlights and expose fighters and networkers to a larger base
