    That is the problem. According to Eddie "PPV is killing the sport of boxing" Hearn the whole premise of DAZN UK was to get away from PPV. People were tired of PPV. That's what Hearn said a year ago, but it's apparently forgotten now.

    DAZN does feel a bit Mickey Mouse. I was expecting more.

    Ffs. Enough. I have tried to defend DAZN and understand the rationale behind their decisions, but they are just a contradictory, mickey mouse startup with a cluster **** of PR blunders. Flip flapping and deceitful at every turn.

    Just hurry up and declare your inevitable bankruptcy.

    I held off because I wanted to see Smith Fowler and since then I’ve forgot. I think I’ve logged on once since to watch Smith Vargas. Absolute idiot, just keep forgetting.

    The funny thing about DAZN is that it's basically just turning into a PPV channel almost. Just dip in and out when you fancy an event

    And if anyone brings up one of Hearn’s contradictions he just replies with ‘get a life, how sad must you be’ bla bla bla.

    I'm reluctant to pay because I have no faith in the judging being fair. Plus GGG is likely too far over the hill now. So I think I'll pass on this one.

    What hearn has done to the family business will be written about as a harvard business case.

    Dazn finding out the hardway, just like boxnation.

    He has royally ****ed it

    I can’t believe there are gullible fools out there willing to shell out for this.

    I’m saving my money for the Jake Paul fight, only $70.

    The the ZONE app is still on my telly. Just sayin.

    Not sure whether I’ll pay for canelo GGG III but I probably will when it comes around, 7.99? If so then yeah that’s a no brainer to watch two legit ATGs go at it.

    GGG is shot to my acute eye based on that murata fight but who knows if he can pull one more great performance out of him against the feather fisted Ginger midget, he’s that kind of fighter, could go to the well one more time and leave it all in there for the legacy but I say probably not and lean towards canelo stoppage.

    I second this, I honestly think it will be rather one-sided. Golovkin really looked his age against the Jap.
