    Dazn’s biggest mistake was not snatching up the HBO production crew, which became available right about the time the streaming service was getting into the game.

    I believe Jack actually grew up and attended high school(s) in the same county I grew up in. And you betcha! I'll do my best to find a way to sneak Cuckoo's Nest into my next silly opening.

    Thank you!

    If you would have asked me without the cavaet, the Emanuel one was the first I'd always mention. But yeah - that video is 100% about Emanuel, so it's not usual for my content (and I actually had a friend who's an audio guy clean up the messy old sound, which is also something I have never done on any other video).

    Tough to say. The 3 longest videos I produced all took months of 60-70 hour weeks to create, so those all tend to hold a special place for me. Beyond that I am not sure. I remember really liking my Tokyo Douglas video at the time I released it, and also more recent ones on Spinks and Hopkins.

    Thank you! And I'll try. I thought I had an angle for it at one point, but I've had other ideas floating around regarding Primo. At some point it will happen, almost assuredly this year. :thumbsup:

    I had thought about that before, too. Not sure if it would have necessarily been practical, as I assume the HBO production crew teams resided in the US, and I assume that is not the case for DAZN. Beyond that, I'm not totally certain that DAZN always has their own production crew, or whether they license from other broadcasting entities.

    But with the way camera technology is improving and evolving so quickly every few years, there is no excuse to not have incredible top notch camera work in all boxing broadcasts these days.

    Wow. Lol. You're a good sport Rummy, I was just kidding but if you did see your way to...that'd be cool. In all seriousness, great vid in terms of creativity and content. Much appreciated. Thanks.
