    So, I can get low-level pay-per-views every weekend for 7 months from DAZN or I could pay for one low-level pay-per-view from PBC for the same price. Hmmm, what a predicament, which oh which will I choose?:rolleyes:

    Top Rank have the belt holders and could unify within 12 months if they wanted to. WBSS wouldn't be needed to make it happen and TR could stop it if they wanted too. But I agree, a LHW unification would be amazing for boxing.

    This is Top Rank we’re talking about. Their selfish matchmaking is to build the company not the fighters. The WBSS overrides these types of politics. That’s of course if people want the Undisputed fight NOW. Top Rank would just milk time

    I wish I could get DAZN and ESPN+ in Australia. They miss out on my hard earned and I have to either go to the pub (not the worst time ever) or watch low res streams.

    Doesn’t effect me either way, but for those PBC PPV’s, you could get DAZN for 6 years.

    Not as bad as the PBC but yeah, all promoters do this. But my point is, If you're TR why would you do this? If you wanted unification you could do it and keep 100% of the profits. If it goes to WBSS you don't therefore, it's extremely unlikely to happen.

    Boxing is the only sport people will pay stupid amounts of money to watch fights they don’t want to happen.

    Won't happen. At least not with Beterbiev, Alvarez, Gvozdyk and Barrera in it.
    TR won't give away their guys to a rival network. Ramirez and Ramirez come to mind :lol: You know, the former 168lb WBO champ, and the current 140lb WBC champ.

    You left off Canelo Jacobs which on paper is better than any on the PBC lost bar probably Wilder Fury.

    I’m not sure about the average but I was paying about $200 per month recently, which included HBO and Showtime, along with some other specialty sports networks, primarily for college football. That also includes internet, as its bundled together. My bill is a little lower now, as I downgraded my service and got rid of HBO and Showtime. I also pay separately for ESPN Plus, DAZN, Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon Prime. I added Showtime to my Hulu subscription for an extra $10 per month, as I was paying $20 per month for both HBO and Showtime through my cable provider (they won’t let you just subscribe to Showtime; they make you bundle it with HBO).

    I see that you’re a premium buyer. That’s fine. Many people enjoy their entertainment and feel its worth.

    Me personally, I’m close to 40 and I’m past the TV generation. I spend most of my time making music and tutoring, however boxing is important to me, so DAZN is great.

    With American taxes as is and I don’t watch TV, I don’t feel spending $200 which I’m assuming includes your internet, that I should need it.

    I spend $60 on cell data and already paid yearly sub for DAZN. The rest I save each year for my vacations to Europe
