Originally posted by _Rexy_ View PostWhy would G take a 2 or 3 fight deal with DAZN fully knowing that his entire contract would be to build him up only to sacrifice him to Canelo in a fight where he’s years older and needs a knockout to win. He should just go after the other champs. There’s no guarantee Canelo doesn’t drop a belt and avoid the trilogy anyway, contract or not.
Are you a real fan of the sport or just a clown rooting for PBC and its fighters?
Explain why the addition of DAZN is so bad for you?

Originally posted by MDPopescu View Post... I put it wrong... the fighters, the broadcasters and the promoters are taking the money in the short run... but the true (candid) investors are losing their money... in the long run, the actual sport is losing...
If so much is invested and fighters are allowed to do as they please it harms the sport and everyone in it.

All that's good news to me. Now if all these platforms put on good fights and work together when needed, we the fans will benefit tremendously

Really glad that these outlets are putting a lot of money into the sport!
A bit concerned about the DAZN thing though. Dumping twice what the others are but they don't look like they're going to have a lot to show for it. That's not a sustainable way of doing business. Something big will have to happen or they're not going to last.
That aside, glad to see the money is still flowing in the post-HBO era.

Originally posted by MDPopescu View Post... right... when I mentioned a supposed DAZN "hidden business agenda", I didn't mean boxing or combat sports, but rather other sports -- which represent the main market in the U.S.
Wouldn’t the major sport leagues just have their own app to be purchased by the public so that they can keep a 100% of the revenue that it brings in. Why partner with a platform when these leagues can get the whole pie to themselves and eliminate the middle man from the equation
