    Wow, imagine DAZN having deals with Matchroom, PBC, Golden Boy and Most Valuable Promotions. They also air Wasserman shows globally I believe too.

    The problem is DAZN doing PPVs now in addition to needing a subscription...shame this didnt happen when it was goddamn $20/month

    Youre missing the point. Just because a fight airs on PPV doesnt mean it makes more $$ for the fighters...there's still a break-even point. And if there aint no buys it wont make $$...

    That's why some fighters were comfortable w just making $$ via purses (Andre Ward, Thurman, etc.)

    Sounds too good to be true, also a worry too many eggs in one basket. I wasn't even sure DAZN would survive 6 months ago to be honest

    So PBC want to clash with Matchroom shows Regis Prograis vs Devin Haney and Jesse Rodriguez vs Sunny Edwards? On Decemeber 9 Top Rank have a show headlined by Robeisy Ramirez too.

    What a sad way for Showtime to bow out of the sport. Surely everyone will be watching Prograis vs Haney and Rodriguez vs Edwards?

    I'd be much more inclined to watch a Danny Garcia vs. Erislandy Lara fight for the WBA Middleweight Title and Keith Thurman vs Staniosis for the WBA "Regular" Welterweight Title fight on Showtime ... than some flyweight title fight and Devin Haney on PPV for $70 or $80 ... or Robeisy Ramirez. I don't even think I know who he is.

    Sounds like a much better fight card Showtime is signing off with than the one HBO signed off with.

    Oooo stanionis vs Thurman if this ends up being true then that's great for both guys & a way better fight for Keith too.

    Plus Ortiz fight has sailed on & I think he will be moving up ton154lb now anyways.

    Doubt many will be watching when Jesse Rodriguez vs Sunny Edwards is on the same day on DAZN.

    Harmon is trying to tout those fights in his schedule to new broadcasters.

    Stanionis may legitimately be cursed.

    There's no point in putting on a good fight at Showtime at this point; they are going away, regardless.
