DAZN launches in UK

[garethhop]

This December.

From Twitter appears that not only are they using the Campbell/Garcia fight to launch, but that the Joshua fight is also going to be available.

Here we go.........

£1.99/month too

[garethhop]

They've clarified the Joshua fight isn't on it.

Let's be honest, no wonder it's cheap, they aren't going to have much content for a little while, partic until Canelo is sorted.

[Nightmare Roy]

I’ll have it for £2 a month

[NoScoutingReports]

Joshua v Pulev isn't part of this in the UK, will still be a separate PPV here.

[milpool]

As usual with these things, I'll monitor the output for a few months and if it's worth having, I'll have it. £2 a month isn't going to break the bank.

[Counter-puncher]

i haven't got a fvcking clue what I'd get for it, but I'd happily wodge out £2/month even if it just meant one Estrada-Cuadras type fight per month

[Delta Jay]

I don’t have a Sky box or any kind of digital telly, I just go fishing when I can or watch replays. But I almost prefer it when something like BN or the Fite.TV for last Loma fight comes along. I can pay a one off fee and just watch the fights I’m excited for and not pay something crazy for a load of cricket I’ll never watch. If this takes off it will be an absolute godsend for me.

Mate of mine works for Dazn, quite high up in IT. I saw him last year at some function and he's telling me about his job, I asked him what they were doing about boxing (in the UK) he just looked at me blankly. I'm amazed it's taken this long.

I still can't work out their pricing structure for their business model.

[Ruthless-RKO]

They're definitely going to increase the price.

The reason the Garcia-Campbell fight will be on DAZN in the UK, is because it's being promoted by GBP.

[MattCoke]

Launches same night as the Fury, Yarde - Arthur card, so can’t see many subscribing for the launch date.

[Black Sam Bellamy]

I can envisage some potential conflicts of interest for Hearn here with obligations to DAZN and Sky to meet.

Once his contract is up he might jump ship boxing wise

[handsofstone]

£2 a month is nothing, may as well get it even until the price inevitably goes up, in saying that I've had iView for a couple of years, binned the sky and haven't bought a PPV since, £100 a year , every channel, all PPVs and hundreds of movies and TV series, highly recommended if you grudge shelling out and hate buffering streams

Not for long. His contact with Sky expires early next year.

Could be an interesting 6 months. DAZN becomes a different beast in the UK if Eddie moves exclusively to DAZN. Won't be £2 per month for long

[veriton]

at last. I noticed the BT Sport app is now on Roku too so there is a big shift in that direction. There's been a huge hole since allegedly had its guts ripped out, let's hope DAZN can fill it for fight fans

Had Iview meself for the last year or so,made up with it never let me down.

Unfortunately I'm old enough to know that sky TV was free initially when it started , how much is it now ?
Nothing can be free or next to bugger all for long , it's obviously not sustainable .

[Counter-puncher]

Do you just go on the DAZN site to sign up? Can you access through online only or does it have to be through the tv?

It may be sustainable but shareholders want to get right on the fine line between milking everything they can get from a customer and not pushing too many customers away. Betfair premium charge is a good example. The company makes millions without it but they can make a few more million by taxing winners up to 60%.

Do you buy the box and pay a one off charge or is a monthly thing?

I really thought this was an absolutely certainty from ages ago. Soon as he was involved in DAZNUSA I just assumed he’d eventually get rid of Sky and make it happen in UK.

Kind of looking forward to it, as I said last post it just suits me better.

You can get a box or firestick off Amazon or wherever, I'm not sure price as I get my Iview on an old kodi box we got years ago, a mate of mine puts it on for me, £100 one off payment for thr year, mines actually runs out on Sunday so I'll give him 100 next week and that'll be me for another year,

I've seen fellas on Twitter advertising it mate, maybe someone more clued up on here might fill you in in how to get it from someone online

[skanksta]

I’m not paying more than £1.69 a month !
