I really do think Dazn and Turki have ruined my enjoyment of boxing. Barring a couple mega Saudi cards they have dropped off a cliff, Frank has put on some good cards, Eddie has largely produced tripe. The PPVs and DAZN ultimate are a complete liberty. It is the least I have enjoyed the sport for a long time
The quality of DAZN last night was really poor. Buffering, the sound zoning out and the picture going back to the main menu. Absolute night and day when you compare it to Sky.
I completely understand what you are saying but mine was perfect last night. At least as good as Sky because my 2 Sky pucks are really terrible.
Has the Ben Shalom BBC deal already died? Williamson vs Simpson is on DAZN, not seen any suggested fights for BBC for a while
Was supposed to be 10 shows a year too. Will probably just be the likes of Fran Hennessy going forward.
EXCLUSIVE: Ben Shalom EXPLOSIVE RANT At "F**KED" Dana White & Zuffa Boxing Going forward, Boxxer will have shows on DAZN and the BBC.
But given the amounts BBC must be paying compared to DAZN, I can’t see anyone other than Fran Hennessy or Lauren Price headlining on those shows.
Didn’t know where to put this and didnt want to create an individual thread but what the hell has happened to Chris Lloyd? I used to think he was quite measured, and came across as a decent intelligent bloke. But his Twitter ramblings over the last few months are just full of borderline anti Semitic posts and other bat**** theories such as , Covid was hoax, 15 minute cities, anti bill gates etc… peddling all the popular conspiracy theories etc. I know a lot of people from the industry read this forum so please can someone check in with him just to make sure he’s okay as it just seems he’s going downhill and god knows where to next.
Let’s be realistic here. He’s pro-Palestine, and separately, anti-Bill Gates is hardly some fringe position either, even Buffett cut ties with Bill. The other things, you’ll find 50% of people on X saying similar, especially since Elon took over and started forcing his views on everyone via the algo 24/7. Guy’s likely just speaking his mind now he’s not bound by some commercial tie-in to the boxing world, as opposed to losing the plot. It’s more likely than not what he’s always believed. EDIT : Did he ever take the Kinahan £££? Because there'll be plenty sanitising their timelines now, acting like they never knew or validated him. Those are the people you should be more concerned with, the fair-weather sell-outs.
Just find the whole DAZN ultimate package laughable. Just checked prices if correct 450 dollars a year USA, 250 quid a year UK and 400 dollars a year Australia, NZ. Great value , always remember it's the cost of a couple of pints argument. The cost of PPV angle, well it's a race to the bottom on PPV standards some sheep argue after about some undercard fight, main events most are Sportsnight or Midweek Sport Special standard AJ v Prenga .
He tweeted that DAZN weren’t happy when he asked Eubank certain questions regarding Benn’s failed test on a live broadcast so I think he called it a day.
