Eddie hearn set to announce major u.s. Streaming partnership with dazn

[smashup]

DAZN has decided to significantly cut their boxing budget. Seeing no return on their investment getting around 1% of US streaming market. This they say now means they will no longer overpay fighters to bring them to their platform.

Not sure the exact significance of this, it could mean they intend to carry on with what they have and try to compete on even ground. But nobody has DAZN so it’s not really even ground. I can’t see why a fighter would hide away for equal money. If money is the same better to be seen. My guess is it’s lip service from the CEO to pacify the board.

I get DAZN for free and so do millions of other IPTV users which doesn't help them.
Who actually pays for PPV these days?

What's the source of your info on DAZN cutting back?

What's the source of your info on DAZN cutting back?

Was talking with a couple local promoters this morning then searched online after hearing what they were saying and found a clip of Eddie saying the same thing just with far less details.

Just one example of many reporting

The source is Mike Coppinger on TWITTER - Joe Markowski of DAZN tells The Athletic the days of inflated purses are over at DAZN, and that they had to pay a market-entry premium

That's it. Nothing else. There's no reports (why would there be?). No comment from Eddie or anyone.

The video provided is just a race baiting retard pretending to his race baiting retarded viewers that he scooped a story.

In just one year, DAZN has grown into a must-have for boxing fans


Joe Markowski said DAZN’s budget for fighters isn’t going to be as large as it was in the beginning when it was trying to establish itself in the marketplace.

It paid overwhelming amounts of money to fighters, in some cases 10 and 20 times what they were offered elsewhere. Alvarez signed a 10-fight, $365 million contract that has largely been a blessing for the network, though it needs to figure out how to make him take the fights which make sense, like the one against Golovkin. DAZN also gave Golovkin a deal that exceeds $100 million, and that contract is something of an anchor if Alvarez won’t fight him. Golovkin has fought Steve Rolls on the DAZN banner so far, and is scheduled to meet Sergiy Derevyanchenko next month. Neither are going to be the kind of subscription driver DAZN imagined.

If Golovkin doesn’t fight Alvarez again down the road, they may regret talking him out of a deal that Golovkin had reached with ESPN. Golovkin shook hands with ESPN executives on a contract, only to change his mind and go to DAZN.

But the misses have been far less than the hits for DAZN, and it’s positioned well for the future.

Few had ever heard of it at this time last year. The fact that it’s a must-have for the boxing fan speaks to the job that was done in 12 short months.

It needs to do better going forward, and land even more of the compelling fights like Alvarez-Kovalev than it did in its first year.

But DAZN gets no worse than an A- for Year 1 and it’s positioned itself well to be the biggest player in the sport for years.

Looked at from that perspective, it’s been an incredible 12 months.
