Comments Thread For: Canelo's Deal With DAZN is 11 Fights, $365 Million Guarantee

It’s really REALLY weird that more people are hopping on Hearn’s nuts and bigging him up instead of the boxer who just got paid...

Lol you obviously dislike him because there’s just as much people ****ting on Hearn instead of bigging up the boxer who just got paid. That’s equally weird no?

Are you joking? That’s great news for Hearn.

DAZN just got a huge boost in terms of profile, most likely subscribers, and legitimacy, and he controls most their boxing budget.

You guys are bitter as ****

Some people are forgetting that you get DAZN by subscription on a month by month basis.

No boxing fan is going to pay for a month's subscription to watch a Canelo fight, and not watch the Matchroom fights also screened during the period they already payed for.

Hearn has an exclusivity contract with DAZN for all boxing screened in the US except the WBSS. He will either be getting a cut of the GBP deal or he will have made the decision that allowing them in will be good for his own business.

Canelo's first fight on DAZN will be against a Matchroom fighter. It will the first of many more GBP/Matchroom collaborations on DAZN in the next few years.

. Hearn's deal with DAZN is for DAZN to pay so much and for Matchroom to put on so many fights and cards. There is nothing in the deal that gives Hearn the authority to dictate what DAZN airs or DAZN's schedule or contracts with other organizations.

Excellent. After so much speculation it's good to find out exactly what the deal is between DAZN and Matchroom. I admit I expected such an agreement to be subject to commercial confidentiality, but clearly this isn't the case or you wouldn't be so confident telling us what is and is not in the agreement.

Can you post the deal online so we can see it for ourselves?

It wouldn't be happening without Hearn. Boxing on DAZN in the US is Fast Eddie's baby.

That's why he was up on stage smiling like a Cheshire cat between 2 of DAZN's top brass when it was announced!

Good news for Hearn though whether he has a piece of this action or not.

Yeah, other fighters will have to take DAZN seriously now as an option.

That said, all those fighters that claimed the offer to fight on DAZN wasn't enough will probably want even more now, when they see how much Canelo is making

I only looked at the first page.

Just as weird as people who blow Haymon/Arum/Oscar. It’s strange as hell that promoters have fans these days

****ing Wilder fans so salty. Carry the salt over into everything.

I'm glad a Mexican is the one who basically has the biggest say so in boxing
