DAZN's first PPV is an odd selection to say the least...

    This would have been the dumbest PPV move in history

    No way would I ppv on a platform that is already a subscription service platform, and the only reason for said platform is "boxing". That's just dumb. Now it is an interesting fight, because it's gonna show how much Golovkin has aged. Murata will definitely check under the hood and see if there's any service engine soon lights on. But PPV? Nah.

    To be fair it seems this decision hasn't been followed through on or perhaps this rumour was all bollocks so either way you can be thankful that this won't be PPV and maybe DAZN won't chance it for a while yet.

    If this is true,
    I’m cancelling my sub after the Rosado vs Munguía fight.

    They must be smoking some heavy ganja if they think anybody will buy a DAZN PPV... especially those already subscribing.

    I read in a article that it is blacked out in Kazakhstan and Japan, otherwise it's DAZN, not a word about ppv.

    And they better not chance it ever, would be a slap in the face to their subscriber base. DAZN would die as a source for boxing if it began having ppv.

    What are people paying the boxing subscription for? Why is Golovkin vs a scrub a PPV? I pity any fools who pay for that garbage.

    It’s not PPV but Murata is no scrub. According to Asianboxing this is the biggest fight with a Japanese boxer ever in Japan.

    Is anyone else getting Women's pro skateboarding on their DAZN?

    Just to make it clear for folks who don't read the latest posts/other topics: this fight will not be a PPV.

    Will this be an early morning fight in the US? Or will they fight at noon so it's a midnight fight in the US?
