Comments Thread For: DAZN Group Nears Deal To Help Fund Future Acquisitions

Those are not really impressive numbers tbf

Hulu has more than 25M, Amazon has over 100M subscribers and Netflix has over 140M subscribers and if DAZN wants to be the Netflix of sports they have some catching up to do

Hell ESPN, Showtime and HBO have more paid subscribers in the U.S alone

DAZN are not competing in the same market as those though.

Since when were Netflix, HBO, Showtime and Amazon sport apps?

You seem awfully interested in the success of a service you can't receive in a country you don't live in.

Maybe some of us WANT a streamlined sports service? If DAZN does well, which it is, then there is a good chance that it will launch in the UK sooner rather than later.

We have to pay for a **** load of other channels we don't want over here just to get sports.

We have to pay for a **** load of other channels we don't want over here just to get sports, usually about $100 per month.

Until HBO quit boxing, DAZN was unable to get a single fighter Americans cared about. Unless Sky quits boxing, how exactly is DAZN going to get a foothold in the UK?

I knew something was fishy when they couldn't offer Adams more money to fight GGG than PBC offered him to fight Charlo

Lmao that’s how we are spinning it now. So we aren’t laughing at charlo for “trying to fight someone from the contender”

DAZN fanboys stop being in denial. You can keep spouting off that bs line, “ DAZN owner is a billionaire”. That means absolutely nothing. Do you think he has a billion dollars in his bank account? Do you think he’s funding DAZN all by his self. The writing is on the wall.

... just found out that Blavatnik was listed as the UK's richest person, with a fortune of £16.9 billion.

According to several reports, it appears that DAZN Group, which is the parent company behind the over-the-top streaming service DAZN, is in talks to sell off some of the Perform content to Vista Equity Partners. In 2014, billionaire Len Blavatnik's Access Industries acquired majority control of Perform Group, which last year rebranded the company

... the article above makes it a little bit clear...

... in fact, back in October 2018, it was already announced that:

"Sir Len Blavatnik, majority shareholder of DAZN Group through his Access Industries holdings company, is reportedly plotting to split the sports media company in half in order to intensify his focus on DAZN, the over-the-top (OTT) sport streaming service.

DAZN Group, which was known as Perform Group until a restructuring and rebranding in September, comprises of two distinct brands: DAZN and business-to-business service provider Perform Content.

According to a report in British daily newspaper The Daily Telegraph, Ukrainian-born billionaire Blavatnik is looking to sell the Perform Content side of the company in order to target his investment at DAZN, whose expenditure is ever-increasing as it seeks to become more dominant in the sports rights marketplace."

Never once in this article does it say that DAZN is "hemorrhaging money".

Motorcity shilling for PBC.

All this article states is that DAZN plans to restructure for INCREASE rights for other sports. DAZN looking for other methods to bid high for more content.

Too many dummies here misinterpret articles and headlines as something negative.

WAR DAZN!

The PBC shills are in full effect by orders of Sam Watson’s thug life minions on Boxingscene. They can’t stop the force of DAZN. Haymon skurrred!! Derranged

[OnePunch]

Yea man. The same fans who stream $75 fights and chip in on $75 fights have $100 just laying around. Ok.

do you really believe that the majority of people that stream or throw fight parties dont have $100 bucks to their name?

I dont believe that for a second. I think they are just cheap and will not pay full price.

You’re replying to PBC shrill groups that don’t know how to connect the dots in business and compare movie content to sports...

Motorcity Cobra starting threads because Haymon affiliated sources and fans are seriously worried about DAZN entering the market. Adams will be getting less from Showtime and fighting Charlo who’s less of a threat than GGG. Some boxers won’t take the GGG route since mistakes in the ring can prolong longevity, so Adams’ team preferred Charlo and the matchups offered with the PBC roster, more lucrative for Team Adams.

Aside from that, GGG could’ve also forfeited interest in the fight, as well as DAZN knowing that GGG vs Adams didn’t do much with grabbing subs.

It’s no different than the influence these forums have when industry writers and shillers report to the boss men that certain matchups are receiving bad vibes. No different how fans had changed the course of PAC vs Alvarado
