Comments Thread For: Canelo-Smith: DAZN Partners With Cable Companies; Offering Fight On PPV, DAZN Sub For $69.99

[Thuglife Nelo]

i personally think $70 is a lot for this fight. Canelo vs Smith is a good fight but it isn’t one of the most intriguing fights that fans necessarily were ****ing the drums for over the past year. Then when you take into account that the undercard sucks, that makes it even less worth the $70. I actually wish it was only Ppv and not dazn because I’d love to see what type of numbers Canelo would put up. I’d predict about half a mil Ppv buys at best.

Keith Idec, the article, said $70 for four months, not $70 for “the fight.”

Haymonites making up stuff with the bold. Lol

Daaaaaaayzin!!! What are you like???!!!!
What happened to “PPV is dead”?????
What happened to the legion of nationalist hearniac trolls in the U.K. telling insulting any American who didn’t buy into the mantra!???
Explain this tomfoolery!

I feel you. But the fights that people beat the drums for and really want to see are usually 90 bucks MINIMUM. I think 70 is pretty good for this type of matchup because it is for a lineal title against a proven guy. I’m one of the morons who subscribe to DAZN though so it doesn’t effect me much. I’ll be tuned in.

Garbage and so hypocritical and of course people will come and defend it (the exact same trolls who are not even in the US but have a lot to say about other US PPV's)

Canelo is a Free Agent so he can go back to PPV BUT DAZN looks really BAD in all this because their campaign/introduction was "PPV Is So Screwed" "PPV Is Dead"

That’s what’s oh so droll about it all, these trolls are not even Americans or in the USA but want Americans to buy into dayzin so badly lol. It’s ODD.....

Regardless of what Frankie2cucks kept arguing, the current base that supports boxing

You can live in the past and enjoy your $80 PPVs. Just don’t lie...

It's official. The original DAZN business model has been a failure.

How?

The marketing for this is genius. DAZN is hi******* PPV retention to switch onto app technology. Whoever buys this gets DAZN for 4 months. It means you force your customer to use DAZN for four months all inclusive. I just wish it was 2 quid for y’all.

This is good theory for Canelo buyers whom don’t know about DAZN or don’t know app technologies. DAZN will take over

If the majority of die hard fans didn’t prefer the ppv option, DAZN wouldn’t be doing it.

Again there are 2 parts- growing the base and connecting with the due hardship. DAZN was failing in both ways, so they went with the ppv option for the canelo fight because they saw the ppv sales of Tyson/jones and the pbc ppv’s.
