    No you get the shows free with sky.

    DAZN is fantastic. Take away the hate for Eddie, if you were an American it’s superb value for money.

    What does this actually have to do with Hearn? Do people actually think he owns DazN or something?

    Nothing. Although DAZN gain a **** load more subscribers who then may watch his stuff too.

    Hearn has said that DAZN cards will sold on a card by card basis for those that fall outside the Sky deal.

    It’s hard to see BT etc being interested in these cards especially when DAZN and Matchroom have a deal. So I’d say Canelo will nearly always be on Sky from now on.

    Not sure if Sky will take all canelo fights. They had options to get them before and didnt bother so I wouldn't bank on it.

    I suppose if he ends up fighting Jacobs or Andrade or even Smith then Sky will have those

    That's a fair point. I bought the official Sky Box Office stream for the first Haye-Bellew PPV and it didn't work at all. I remember one or two other posters here also complained about it. I ended up getting a full refund from Sky but it was very poor that the stream didn't load and I had to quickly make other plans to watch it. Ended up missing a bit of the undercard.

    On the flipside even TV PPV can have technical issues. Sky tend to be reliable with their TV coverage but I remember a ton of friends desperately texting me for help with streams on the night of Groves-Eubank because they paid for ITV Box Office and ITV messed up the coverage.

    Streaming is currently not good enough for in play gambling. Anybody know the delay time on DAZN? BT is shocking.

    Don't think sky will have any interest in Golden Boy cards on DAZN. Eddie has to run 16 American shows which all get shown on Sky Sports as well his own UK stuff which is 16 shows I think? As well as a few PPVs.

    I think Sky will go down like a lead balloon soon. $9.99 a month and no PPVs for DAZN. Yet we have to pay in access of £40 a month and then 3 or 4 PPVs a year at £19.95. Its a good job they have the Premier League, without it they'd be ****ed.

    I can bet my left arm as well that if/when Wilder vs AJ or Fury Vs AJ happens it'll be £24.95. He'll tell Kugan this fight couldn't get made unless they bumped the price up. We'll all pay it, then PPVs will end up at £24.95 until the next mega fight. Always used to be £15/16 till the McGregor Mayweather, then it became £19.95 for all.

    DAZN is currently available in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy...boils my **** that they haven’t got it over here yet. It costs an absolute fortune to watch boxing. Winds me up.

    I also assume there's no record facility for streaming. Sometimes I record American shows on Sky or BT, avoid the result and then watch first thing on a Sunday morning. You simply can't beat just flicking between channels with your TV remote and it taking seconds. I imagine on DAZN for example you'd have to close the app down etc and reloading it to get the stream steady would take a minute or so. Plus there's the time delay of course.

    Hand on heart I've never had one technical problem with a PPV ordered from Sky, or BT for that matter.

    well theres not much competition. bellew likely retire next year, brook too once he cashes out against khan. burnett in super series so not potentially not fighting on a hearn show for over a year.
    AJ only one he'll have really (obviously he dwarfs any other fighter in europe).
    his stable is definitely in need of some fresh stars
