  • Top Rank or PBC would have had Garcia-Vargas on PPV

    This is why I’m starting to appreciate DAZN even more. There’s more PPV quality fights than people realize.

    Garcia-Vargas would have been a PPV fight on any other network. It wouldn’t have been right after wilder-Fury 2 but it would have cost us all $75.

    $20 one time or $100 for a year of access seems to be way better than that deal.

    Garcia and Vargas are both multi-division champions, both mexican-Americans and both have fought in the main event of a PPV fight.

    It would be a PPV fight. Not the best one but it would be on PPV.

    Not in a million years would Mikey vs Vargas have been a PBC PPV.

    As for ESPN, they barely ever do PPV, so it's hard to say what they'd do.

      Even Mikey-Broner wasn't PPV. Or Broner-Vargas so no, I really doubt it.

      Hell of a card though. Worth the money.

        No they wouldn't have. Mikey Garcia isn't a draw like that.

          I agree, due to the fact that both of them are American of Mexican heritage, that would have been exploited and the fact that the card was stacked. It would have been on PPV no doubt.

            Well Mikey got $7 million dollars for last night that too much money to be on tv

              It would've been ESPN+ for $5, although I don't see Top Rank ever agreeing to pay Mikey as much as he's getting from DAZN. They probably took a bath on this fight. It only got about as much buzz as a Charlo tuneup on Showtime. It's a terrible investment unless they end up luring Pacquiao to DAZN.

                I have been with DAZN from the start and I am pleased with them. All those good fights on one night yesterday.

                  Neither Spence nor Garcia was B-side to each other during that time. If anything, it can be speculated that Spence took Garcia's star power but we'll never know cause neither has headlined in a PPV fight prior

                    The fight yesterday was definitely PPV material... and makes you appreciate having DAZN.

                    The undercards were 3x better than what we had on Wilder vs Fury.

                    Here is the kicker... it is because of these fights, even though I am not a huge fan of Garcia or Vargas, that I will have ZERO doubts about renewing DAZN... yet no way in hell am I paying to see Fury vs Wilder 3. lol.
