    Could be a fun card but I wonder how many rounds it will provide?

    Anthony Joshua vs Dillian Whyte - how many rounds is that going to provide us with? 6 perhaps?
    Filip Hrgovic vs Dempsey McKean - how many rounds? 4 perhaps?
    Johnny Fisher vs Harry Armstrong - how many rounds? 4 perhaps?

    Embarrassing match ups but I'm not paying so it doesn't matter. Maybe I'll just listen to talk sport that night. Fisher and McKean are totally rubbish.

    Decent card. I like a HW card even if the quality isn't great.

    The wife is out that night. Even though I'm a tight wad I might get in a few beers and actually buy this.

    I’m not convinced anyone wants to see this card. Didn’t Joshua’s fan base all become
    Fury fans? Whyteleafe’s fan base was always basically Joshua’s fan base anyway.

    It’s hidden away on an APP nobody has heard of and it costs £47 to watch two certified BUMslayers who have both lost their bottle.

    I can’t picture the thought process which ends up pressing BUY at £46.95

    Think those complaints belong more on the British forum's thread.

    I read the fight is included in the DAZN subscription. So I guess I will just sign up and cancel to get the month.

    I can watch DAZN Global on the Japan App for ¥980 a month.
    Though I understand DAZN's cancellation policy kind of ties you into 2 months. So that is ¥1960 = $14.00 = £10.80.

    I'm very happy to pay around £10, I wouldn't be happy with £45. So, I understand why people in UK would be annoyed at your price, if it turns out to be true.

    I'd say Ortiz by natural causes.

    £47. And if you don’t cancel immediately it’s £67 because the ZONE charge you for another month, because it’s 30 days Notice to cancel. And they removed the cancel subscription button from their website.

    Hearns junior and the ZONE are like two peas in a pod, they think boxing fans are worthless morons to be milked

    I mean in fairness, I don't really see the advantage of subscribing to DAZN in the UK. Before they had DAZN PPV, I didn't understand where the negativity was coming from. But it's basically now just SkySports without the content.

    Maybe the negativity in the UK resulted in a lack of subscribers, and this is the fall out. Who knows. But in Japan, DAZN is a far bigger platform, with far more sports. And I'm guessing far more subscribers.
    We have two options: (1) DAZN standard where you can watch everything for ¥3000 a month, or (2) DAZN global for ¥980 a month (which is basically just the combat sports). So I can't really complain.
