    But a VPN subscription, set your location to the USA. Purchase DAZN. Watch DAZN with your VPN location set to the USA.

    In a nutshell.

    The solution seems a simple one to me and always has. If you have Sky Sports subscription the PPV fee should be cut by, say, 75%. So £5 for you. I don't have a subscription, so it should be £20 for me.

    I know there's a good case this shouldn't be PPV at all, but the above model has always been an obvious one for cards like this that are right on the border of PPV-worthiness.

    If you buy a VPN and change your location to USA then yes.

    This is probably the funniest case of someone trying to "own" someone else and ending up looking like a ******.

    You need a USA Credit card to sign up for DAZN. How would a Brit get access to a valid USA credit card?

    That doesn't work for dazn. They've got anti VPN servers so only a select few servers in Canada fool it into thinking you're abroad, but when it comes to setting up a payment, the address also has to match abroad.

    No, your post is the funniest case of someone trying to “own” someone else and ending up looking like a ******.

    I’m guessing you’ve never heard of a prepaid card?

    Nice try though.

    Do your research first. A hell of a lot of VPNs are blocked by DAZN but not all.

    I'm not opposed to the concept of PPV's but paying £20 for one fight is absolutely ****ing outrageous no matter who's fighting.

    £10 for a card of at least 2 fights that the fans really want to see is arguably reasonable, for example if Bellew-Usyk and Whyte-Chisora 2 where both on the same night for £10 yeah maybe I'd order that.
    If top fighters saw their earnings fall because the model was changed well here's a wild idea - fight more often !! It's been the norm for a long time now that top fighters only fight twice a year that I'd imagine is not helping the situation.

    How the f*ck is PPV still an existing business model in this day and age?

    Chisora being PPV is a complete and utter joke. He is a gatekeeper/journeyman.

    It's not the hardcore boxing fans that need to boycott the PPV, it's the casuals that must wake up to Hearns milking. He talks and they listen (or buy in this case)
