Get a DAZN subscription. You can get a free trial. Watch it in the motel with a case of beer and a pizza. The real American experience

DAZN appears to be putting a ton of money into trying to get the American audience but they only are showing fringe sports here.
I don't see them making it

It will be shown on the big screen.

Closed-circuit is back.

Go to Fathomevents.com and plug in the zip code of the area you want to see the fight.

It looks like ticket prices are $20.

Practically 1970s prices.

On May 4, boxing’s biggest star will take one step closer to becoming undisputed champion as Canelo Alvarez (50-1-2, 34 KOs) defends his WBC, WBA, Lineal and Ring Magazine Middleweight World Titles in a 12-round unification fight against IBF Middleweight World Champion Daniel “Miracle Man” Jacobs (35-2, 29 KOs) during the celebratory weekend of Cinco de Mayo. The highly anticipated bout and its co-featured fights will broadcast live from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas to big screen across the nation as “Canelo vs. Jacobs.” A full undercard, featuring David Lemieux vs. John Ryder, will be shown prior to the main event.

It sucks, because I love it, but they are making haymon look frugal. They haven't come close to covering canelos money from fielding with every month of their existence.

Or have another good look at their business model.

The proposed v actual financial trajectories might just be too scary to examine right now.

Who on earth is funding DAZN? The US treasury??

Some billionaire is supposedly the guiding economic force behind it.

The bucks that the network is paying probably seems like chicken feed to him.

But then again, remember the MAPS scandal? Maybe Harold Smith has returned and is bankrolling everything.

According to Fathom's website the only theater in New Orleans showing Canelo-Jacobs is the AMC Elmwood Palace, Elmwood Park Blvd in the Elmwood district of New Orleans. The only other ones in southern Louisiana are in Baton Rouge which is about 80 miles west of NO on Interstate 10.

No problem amigo. Another tip you may find helpful: When we saw the Wilder-Fury PPV in a small California town there were lots of walk-in tickets left so we didnt even have to bother purchasing them online. Not sure how popular Canelo is in New Orleans, but you MAY have the same liberty if you go to the the movie theater about 30 minutes before start time!!
