I think you underestimate how many people watch a TV set.
I had Netflix, Hulu and Amazon. Now I just watch Netflix, I never watched the other two.
But I still have satellite with just about every channel possible.
Its like when people said years ago that PCs and Laptops were dying and tablets and cell phones were the future.
Now PC and laptop sales have actually been up the last few years - and mostly due to streaming and gaming (and other tech related things) because nobody wants to do things all day on a small cell or tablet. My PC screen is 50 inches so I like screens big.

DAZN success in boxing will depend solely on their ability to lure fighters to Matchroom or other promotions that will sign deals to fight exclusively on DAZN. It will be tough with PBC and ESPN having success.

Haymon still has all the power here. He has the US talent. Whether it's Showtime, FOX, UFC, DAZN or whoever else, only Haymon has an army of American world champions who aren't locked up by anybody.
And it's hard to overbid for one specific fighter because Haymon has a war chest that allows him to match any offer.

The biggest reality with streaming content that they aren't really producing much now of is of the customized version of it. Like TR does a lil with their shows. Like the UFC does with their watch either corner between rds thing + alternate commentary. You can't do that with broadcast TV & thats one of the big reasons broadcast TV will be dead in a decade or two (or maybe just like radio is now vs TV cuz you could be onto something & maybe some people stick with "regular TV").
When you can fully customize your viewing experience with live events & eventually movies, or as I suspect they will, you'll see critical mass reached with cord cutting & people flipping to streaming.

So what you are mainly saying is you think they need a name (or two or three) to help sell this deal better basically if I'm understanding you right?
