DAZN is BAD!!! for BOXING!!!

[DaNeutral.]

And Andy Ruiz is going to crush their second biggest attraction. Not that I want DAZN to fail, because I think they have offered some of the best fights of the year (Ruiz/AJ, Prograis/Taylor, Inoue/Donaire, Ramirez/Hooker, ect.) and I actually subscribed for the year. But, they I just don't see what they're doing as sustainable like paying a nobody like Haney 1 mill. Plus they made the sport look weak by having Canelo wait out the UFC event.

There has been nothing that has crippled this sport in the US and made it look weak like the big fights not happening because PBC fighters keep making excuses not to take those fights. And what makes it look even weaker is that those same PBC fighters have at some point been all over social media smack talking these fighters they wont face.

Social media is massive and people pick up on the back and forth between fighters and then when they attempt to take notice they read that those interesting fights are not going to happen because a PBC fighter is now not smack talking any more but making their excuses not to fight that interesting fight after all.

I have dazn but didn't watch this bullshyt. I can't say that more eyes on the sport is bad for boxing. Casuals get interested from the drama, and become real fans. So, we gotta respect that.
What bugs me is that this takes the place of a good card on a subscription service. I don't want pay for this garbage. Let the ppv people sell it to the suckers.

I think dazn is great for boxing, more and more people do not have regular cable but apps and that is only going to become more common ground as we go into the future. The people who cry about the apps easily give themselves away as just straight haters or broke dudes with old ass tv's because EVERY SINGLE TV YOU CAN BUY IN THE LAST 2 YEARS IS A SMART TV that comes with all the apps.

and whats wrong with a kids at a boxing event? theirs always kids at boxing events and these werent kids they were young ass adults, 18 year olds etc. They showed up to support their fighter etc which is cool.

as for fixed fights and ****, no one believes it, and take a look around you realize the only other people who say that are other pathetic posters here lmfao so that should tell you something.

Canelo vs Kovalev Generates $8.173 Million, 10,005 Tickets Sold who in boxing can Generates $8 million ???
Errol Spence Jr vs Shawn Porter Sells 13k Tickets, $2.3M Live Gate:

Errol Spence and Shawn Porter didn’t have a combined purse of 45M though.

I don’t think DAZN is bad for boxing competition is good but the thing that worries me about DAZN is realistically how do they make mega fights? For example ESPN and FOX are doing a co ppv for fury wilder assuming wilder beats Ortiz.

I was thinking how does DAZN realistically do a co ppv. Let’s say Joshua vs wilder if they both win? How does that fight realistically get made or someone on contract with another network? Does Dazn take the bad press and just do a normal co ppv? These are honest questions take the names out it I just wonder how realistic it is for Dazn to make big fights where their fighter isn’t the overwhelming A side.

I don’t think Dazn is bad for boxing but with their model I think it limits the hell out of them in terms of making co promotional co network mega fights.

I like DAZN. I did a $100 for the year. I’m happy with it. Beats the crap out of having to pay $50 to watch David Tua vs. Saul Montana or a shot Evander Holyfield vs. Sherman Williams. Shot Roy Jones vs. Anthony Hanshaw another $50 special. I’d take DAZN over those days any effing day. I think they need to work on their fight promotion though. FOX did a better job promoting Caleb Plant vs. Jose Uzcategui than DAZN did prompting Canelo vs. Kovalev. . . Plant/Uzcategui had a whole series of documentaries and countdowns. It was fantastic. I think what might hurt DAZN a little is that not everyone is up to date with a smart tv or roku or fire stick or whatever. Would be nicer if there was a DAZN channel we could flip over to with good ol Comcast cable. DAZN does need to do a better job with fight build up. ESPN+ has been more frustrating than DAZN for me. Crawford, Lomachenko, Fury, they’re holding these 3 guys hostage. Easy hand picked fights. One mismatch after another. ESPN is killing me with these 3. When are we gonna see them in there with someone who gets fans excited? And as far as KSI / Logan Paul goes, it was fantastic. A great opportunity to bring in newer, younger fans to the sport

.

The LDBC whom cry about “apps” yet they promote the “LDBC App” or say “use Disccord.”

Sell an app called Lean or Thugsefie for $29.99 and I’m sure it’d be a hit.

Why is it that the people who cry the most complaining about DAZN are the ones who haven't paid a cent to view DAZN's contents?
