DAZN Offer £83.89

Bloody hell. Never picked tthat nugget of info up ‍♂️

 

The most shocking thing is that DAZN is planning Moses Itauma vs Dillian Whyte to be on PPV.

How many people is ready to pay for such a mismatch ?

 

They're taking the ****! Even though I'm missing boxing I just don't have any urge to sign up for DAZN. The one selling point that they went so big on was the absence of PPV, now it seems like any halfway interesting fight comes with an additional fee. I get that they couldn't make their previous model to work financially, but their choice now, a subscription covering a load of stuff that doesn't really appeal and then charges for any halfway decent boxing card just makes it seem like a backwards step from the Sky/ BT sport model that they disrupted. Just wish they'd never come along to begin with.

 

DAZN appear to have now got to the stage where any fight, with one fighter name known by the general public is now on Box Office.

I would have no problem paying £15 per month if all Box Office events were included for subscribers.

A tiny percentage are taking huge sums of loot but the lack of eyes on boxing will at some stage damage the sport beyond repair taking years and years to recover.

 

Spot on as usual. There is nothing that makes a mockery of a sport, the noble art, with a history of well over 200 years ( the whole of time really ) , and the amazing warriors that have entered the ring, than people like Haney, Canelo, that Cuban/German guy, Garcia etc getting paid so much they don’t bother. They are killing the game. To misquote Larry Holmes ,they are not fit to hold the jockstraps of the greats and the not so greats who have left it all in the ring. Throw in the PPVs on an APP and the bells are tolling. Haney and Canelo in particular, are an embarrassment to this great sport and the sooner they are gone the better.

 

I'm still waiting for DAZN to introduce a one year subscription where PPVs are included.

 

The only way for them to stop milking people is for everybody to cancel subscriptions, boycott all PPVs and give them zero money until they cremate the concept of PPV.

 

The Deadzone World Club Egg Cup 'Live' Stream is a full 21 secs behind the Bet365 live stream for the PSG v Atletico Madrid match.

Shocking

 

You hit the nail on the head. This is exactly my point and I don't understand it.

DAZN / His Excellency doesn't really need all these PPVs as their events are financed in an alternative way

 

I fully understand that the big fights can only be financed through PPV, but the way DAZN runs their business with countless PPVs doesn't make for many happy customers.

 

Totally disagree with any need for PPV.

All that Saudi loot proves there is no end to the greed these days.

 

Absolutely. I’m guessing that the DAZN subscription numbers aren’t great, so to then have a PPV on DAZN must mean that the buys will be tiny. Casuals won’t be bothered to go through the rigmarole of signing up.
