    I agree that their US shows have been better than their UK shows this year. Not many big non-PPV shows from any of the top promoters hree to be honest showing the state of British boxing.

    Cordina vs Rakhimov, Wood vs Warrington, Wood vs Lara x 2 and Taylor vs Cameron x 2 are very good main events, but not much else to shout about. Pattinson vs Jenkins was a FOTY contender though. We did get Joshua vs Franklin and Joshua vs Helenius on non-PPV though which was great value for UK subscribers.

    Hardly great value. Both fights were absolutely crap.

    The two Joshua fights were absolute stinkers mate but hopefully he gets in with Zhang for his December fight now Hearn has declared he will have no problem facing Zhang.

    I forgot the Wood vs Lara fights too. Joshua vs Franklin was poor, but I enjoyed Joshua vs Helenius.

    I don't think Joshua will fight in December as it seems like they are working with Finkel to make Joshua vs Wilder in February / March. I'm sure Joshua has no problem fighting Zhang considering he beat a younger version of him in the Olympics, but I presume Matchroom wouldn't want to take the risk with a Wilder fight that could happen at anytime.

    Queensberry thought Zhang had no chance against Joyce as he was 40 and went life and death with Jerry Forrest which is why they picked him for Joyce even though Joyce was WBO mandatory.

    Official announcement. So Opetaia vs Thompson will lead into Canelo vs Charlo. Class from DAZN to not put it on PPV unlike TNT who put Crawford vs Spence on PPV. DAZN have set a precedent that the big US events will not be PPV in the UK like Garcia vs Davis.

    This fight is nowhere near the size of Crawford vs Spence, and neither is it as important.

    The ticket sales are atrocious.

    Zhang will beat the crap out of him, as if he had pissed in his pot noodle.

    You don’t pay for DAZN so why are you so obsessed with whether they charge PPV or not :lol: literally makes zero different to your life or wallet.

    Glad this event will be on there.

    They haven't done enough of this since their relaunch for Joshua-Franklin, and I hope it’s a sign of things to come. Credit where it’s due.

    Weirdly neither are showing on the DAZN Sky channel - are they only on the App?

    DAZN has made a lot of mistakes and treated their customers badly and disrespectfully, but they deserve a lot of credit for buying the UK rights to Canelo vs Charlo.
