    Now we have three major UK fight destinations. Fights will be even harder to make and cost the fan more.

    Game. Changed.

    All fans who wanted dazn uk before it split the industry even more asked for this.

    More boxing and more competition is a result for boxing fans.

    Hughie was always going to leave Mick as was Savanah Marshall.

    Dubois signing with them is a surprise.

    The other two heavyweight signings are prospects which is interesting.

    Eubank isn’t PPV I take it?

    The production side is strange- they’ve gone for Vick Hope as the main presenter and sacked off Anna Woolhouse who wasn’t terrible at her role in my opinion. I suspect it’ll be Adam Smith on lead comms with a rotating line up of co-comms.

    This announcement points to there being quite a bit of bad blood between Sky and Hearn because clearly Sky have gone after fighters who could have signed with DAZN to fill out their cards.

    Hearn will be naffed that he hasn't got Marshall and with Shields also being on the roster, that is one mega fight that he has lost.

    Unlucky young Edward! :boxing1

    No it isn't. It's a result for boxers.

    Watered down stables for every promotor. There's only so many good fighters.

    No this Eubank fight isn’t PPV but they’ve said some of his future fights will be.

    Eddie and Frank are now competing with Sky Sports. Sky are an absolute powerhouse in any sport. They’ve both got to up their game, I don’t see how that can be bad for fans.

    Please. That's like saying Amazon getting some premier league games was good for fans as they are rich. It isn't. It's another subscription fans need to see the same stuff.
