Big step in the right direction, DAZN have deep enough pockets to seal any fight so let's hope the egos don't get in the way.

I have a feeling that Hearn is going to run out of money and be in big trouble.
Same, he needs to pace himself. All this money and you'd think they could afford some decent arena lighting .
That's a boatload of egos in a room though. So Hearn, Finkel, DiBella and Haymon will have a 'sit down'. Hey I hope it bears fruit but those existing politics will make Washington D.C blush. Hearn would do well not to get too carried away juuuust yet with Miller right around the corner. Stranger things have happened .
That simply isn't going to happen
DAZN is owned by the Perform Group who are owned by this Group called Access Industries.
Trust me money is never going to be a problem.
They've already invested massively and will just continue to sign up all the top fighters until the other tv networks break.
Why do you think HBO quit boxing and Showtime are set to follow?
They simply can't compete financially.

But we have seen it time and time again to where boxers are promised tons of money and then the platform ends up not being able to pay it all. Then the fighters don’t end up fighting and it’s a mess. I wouldn’t be shocked if some of these DAZN fighters don’t get paid and have to get out of the contract. It’s a lot of money that’s going to these fighters and it’s going to be tough to earn it back.
I don't agree, firstly DAZN can do what Man City FC have done and just throw money at it until it works,
Access Industries are an absolute Giant of a company who own metal mines all over the world, we are talking serious serious money here. (Trillions upwards)
Warner Bros, Deezer, DAZN etc are just the little fish they own.
They aren't going to just pull the plug after the hundreds of Millions they've already invested and they can and will just keep outbidding the competition and signing up the rest of the top fighters.
Sooner or later DAZN will be the only true player in Boxing just like Netflix is with films & Boxsets.
At $9.99 per month with no hidden extras and no contract only an absolute fool of a fight fan who can access DAZN won't already have it.
Just look at who they've already signed in under 6 months and that was with no real stable.
Now they are signing the elite left right and centre it'll be even easier to sign the rest of them.
Why do you think Wilder is in talks.... because he wants a piece of the mega money while he can get it is why 😉
