I believe there have only been 3 cards but those 3 cards have generated 500x the revenue generated by all the BS dazn has put out. But can you please tell me how you feel about dazn pulling a bait-and-switch on you by charging for PPV?

DAZN pulling a BS like that isn't new hence why I haven't paid a penny to them since the BS they pulled with tennis years ago so not surprised at all. I also haven't paid for the PBC Amazon Prime PPV either because I didn't see it worse the price. I'm just amused at how Americans are willing to accept the inactivity by PBC that comes with outrageous price of PPV when it is actually offered on Amazon Prime, when other boxing cards are offered for essentially free for all Prime account holders outside America.

By the way I happily pay my annual $40 subscription for Prime Video and so far fully enjoyed watching four cards that were all offered for free with no PPV in Japan that had like 12 world title fights combined so far this year, with a good 3 or more likely to come before the end of the year.

Granted boxing as a whole in America is so overpriced. Promotions have enough sponsors that they should be able to get enough money to pay their guys while providing fans with free view for account holders on Prime, they just don't want to because they are all too busy pocketing every extra penny they can pick up.

By the way I watched Nakatani KO Santiago at Ryogoku at ringside this February while only paying $300 USD.

Well we can’t very well have a black American in charge of American boxing. That’s just unacceptable for too many groups domestically and internationally. You lot must be put in your place and never be on the level of us Brits….not even in your own country.

Al Haymon definitely upsets the global nationalists…

The problem with Al Haymon isn’t that he is black.

It’s that PBC puts on too many crappy matchups that no one is asking for, keeps fighters inactive, and didn’t want to include other promoters with their USA boxing takeover attempt.

arabs are willing to open up shop in the worst areas.

for every daishiki wearing clown coming in to harass habib about doing business in "our communities", there are 5 others who depend on him to be open every day.

You're doing to much midget boy. The people you are trying to please never liked you and never will. They only allow you around because they take all your women from you. Just go to the store and shut up. You're irrelevant to this conversation haha!

Just because it's not a problem with YOU doesn't mean the problem doesn't exist. Haymon operation consists of the same tactics employed by all the other major players but yet he consistently is the only one that receives negative reactions for it. We can try to ignore the root of the problem but some of us aren't scared to challenge it directly.

Open doors with locks are prison cells

Open doors with locks are also called homes you idiot

Just because someone criticizes Al Haymon doesn’t mean it’s because he is black. Stop with the victim mentality.

I see no point in being so secretive in a very high profile sport. No one is perfect. It's better to lay it all out there and people would be more understanding than you expect. Bob Arum was very open when he was having squabbles with HBO. Hearn have admitted having been too aggressive in his tactics squandering DAZN money during his initial inception to boxing. Heard Hoya admitted mistakes and so on.

Did Hoya ever admit to stuffing kitchen utensils up his azz?

You guys have to stop looking at exclusively Sean Hannity and FOX news. I fear your debating skills are limited to phrases like "victim mentality"... "woke" and "liberty and justice". The thought of someone like me playing the victim role to people like you or anyone else on this site is laughable. Again, just because someone isn't scared to point out something that is uneven doesn't mean he's a victim. If a foreigner reaches the southern border of the U.S. and claims asylum to enter the country do we say he's "playing the victim" or do we listen to him?
