Also, its funny how in my region its still €4.99, only I have to pay for the PPV´s. I looked around and couldn´t see any option to "upgrade" my subscription.

 

The issue for me is that Benn v Eubank is a non title fight, between two non elite British level fighters and should never be near PPV along with any fight involving Dillian Whyte, Chisora or Joey 12.

PPV for me should be 2 elite level fighters facing each other for World Titles such as Bivol v Beterbiev.

So what we get is the same old shyte but now £230 instead of £80.

 

It’s a no from me this. If they put something on PPV that’s worth paying for I might decide to buy it. I don’t trust Deadzone enough to pay for a years worth of PPV up front for them to deliver crap.

 

An absolute no from me, for a tonne of reasons.

You’re essentially pre-paying for PPVs with absolutely no guarantee on the level/quality of them, and with them committing to a minimum of 12 PPVs, who knows what sort of stuff will be elevated to PPV to help bolster the numbers if things get a bit quiet and Turks takes all the big fights to Netflix. As far as I can see there’s no mention of if it’s all ‘proper’ boxing, or if Misfits and bare knuckle will be part of the 12.

And no matter how many times over the last 15 years we’ve heard ‘no more PPVs’, they always come back. There’ll always be a ‘super duper mega fight’ that just ‘can’t possibly’ be made without PPV.

 

Plus keep in mind that all Super fights (like Canelo vs Crawford) going forward will be on Netflix.

I've had a whisper in my ear that His Excellency really doesn´t care about DAZN.

 

I done the same and payed £186.26 today, the way I’m seeing it I effectively only need four shows over the next 12 months that I would be willing to pay on top of the £119 to make this worthwhile, I was always buying Eubank Benn and Benavidez Yarde so that’s two down, and getting Inoue on Dec 27th means I only need one show that I would have bought between January - November next year to justify this, anything over them four is money actually saved.

 

This may explain why Mr Turki has taken the Saudi football off DAZN.

 

Couldn’t agree more, mate, but let’s be realistic, the problem started when DAZN threw $1 billion at Fast Car. To attract fighters he overpaid, and the demand outweighed the supply, so boxers started getting unrealistic purses. Which was great for them and the promoters if they could turn a profit or leverage a bigger piece for themselves, but then Turki came along with an endless oil well of loot and that compounded everything.

Hence we’ve got what we’ve got. Eventually the DAZN model will collapse; boxing’s too niche and they don’t have enough variety to ever be profitable unless they float as an IPO, and even that would only slow down the cash burn.

Eventually all roads lead back to Sky, which is why it was always the ideal platform. But that won’t happen until the boom turns to bust and fighters start having realistic expectations about their worth. Until then we’re stuck with overpriced subscriptions and inflated cards.

Truthfully, I actually pay more for Sky Sports, and that’s pretty much only for the tennis and what boxing used to be on there. I don’t even watch football anymore, watching my team get beat every weekend was worse than watching Okolie fight.

 

Yeah, exactly how I looked at it, mate. I knew if I didn’t do it instantly I’d just pussyfoot around, not bother, and then do what I always do — end up buying the PPVs on the day even if I don’t watch them all live.

It’s the same with all the American cards, I tend not to stay up or get up to watch them. Easy to say, “oh, **** it, I’ll go watch it down the pub,” but a couple of rounds of drinks and that’s the subscription done and dusted at London prices.

 

Hope it works out for you over the year and you get more value for money than when many were sucked in for annual subs a couple of years ago. Can honestly say I had no idea how bad it would be after the 1st month where the schedule was good to suck people in.

It is sad days that we have Benn v Eubank levels on PPV when in football terms, it is really Leicester v Southampton in the Championship with some making a case for Eubank being Wolves FC.

 

A warning to all about DAZN :

I have an annual DAZN subscription. They took money from my bank account at the end of August 2025 for the next 12 months.

I ordered DAZN Ultimate yesterday and they have taken £249.99 upfront.

DAZN forgot that I had paid for 12 months subs. at the end of August 2025. I think it would have been fair if they had credited me for 9 months subs. but they obviously don't think so.

Sad.

 

It's obvious they are going to do this. After a few months, they will just pad out the "Ultimate" with this.
I foolishly bought an annual DAZN subscription package in August (paying monthly), believing they'd just stick the PPVs on the regular subscription. I cancelled a week or two ago, but am stuck with it until next August apparently. No ****ing way I'm upgrading. I'd rather find a pub, spend the money on a few drinks, or listen to the fights on the radio.

 

I'm surprised so many here have paid up more money to DAZN, after all we've been discussing. I'm no better, I was foolishly hooked by the post-Usyk-Dubois spiel from Turki et al. And I knew Itauma-Whyte wasn't PPV material, so when they offered me the 'free PPV' and a slightly reduced sub on 'the annual', i paid up. They fooled me.
But if they fool me twice, that's shame on me.

 

They are offering the Ultimate DAZN to me at £22.99 a month. That's £276 a year.

 

"Minimum of 12 PPV events a year"
The idea that 12 fights a year are even "PPV-worthy" is a joke. Across the board, it's highly unlikely, it's never been seen before. And then if you account for DAZN having serious competitors in the PPV boxing marketplace .... it's comical.
