Just Cancelled DAZN

[skanksta]

I'm watching KSI vs Tinie Temperrrr (or whatever?) now and they're plugging Wood vs Lara, Eubank vs Smith and a vaguely watchable women's fight.
It's pretty bad tbh, and I'm looking to cut back on monthly exes. Haven't ditched it yet, tho..

[Lightsoot]

I’ll cancel at the end of Jan as I’d like to watch Wood vs Lara.

Not interested in the KSI Misfit brigade tonight, but using it as an opportunity to source some new naughty stream sites. So many popular sports streamers have been shutdown recently, both in the UK and US, so it’s getting harder to watch for ‘free’.

But I agree with the consensus - DAZN are taking the piss. I cancelled on principle due to the Benn-Eubank PPV disgrace (before Benn popped) and only renewed for the Josh Warrington fight before Xmas.

They’ll be getting another P45 shortly.

Can't see it lasting much longer , how much money can someone throw at something before bailing ?
It's not going to work , more now than ever people have less disposable income so these are the first things to go .

[skanksta]

Quite.
The women's influencer fight was great tbf, but WTF pays £FORTY QUID for this ?!

A one round women-influencer fight is easily the best on the card.

[handsofstone]

As for the misfit, YouTube crap, it's not boxing it has zero relevance to the actual sport of boxing, I watch every boxing show going and have never seen a misfit card or Jake Paul or whoever the fck, it's soccer aid for boxing, I love seeing it boil piss I must say

They reported on the KSI fight on the news yesterday and showed him doing a workout, they said they couldn't say where it was as the venue would be swamped by fans. Apparently most going or watching the fight aren't even boxing fans. It's crazy really, I don't understand why they are so popular and it's a joke they are earning so much money from it. Saying that who can blame them but it makes a mockery of the sport.

It's like wrestling, I wouldn't take it seriously, there's plenty of things in pro boxing to rile you up, spotty little Herbert's aren't anywhere near the top of the agenda, if you want to talk about making a mockery of the sport then Gilberto Mendoza, Mauricio Sulaiman, Robert Smith, journeymen with no intention of winning but surviving are top of the hitlist

As long as these gamers are fighting fellow virgins then it's no different to amateur boxing, difference is theses gimps are making money and people who should know better, mainly pro or former pros should be able to see that more than anyone, trouble is, a lot of them are jealous

A lot of it's cringe as fck but as much as I love the sport it deserves to get the piss ripped well and truly out of it, mainly because of promoters, managers, advisors, networks and champions are unwilling to fight THE best around

[mickey1975]

Its absolutely packed. Great fight on at the minute.

[skanksta]

B-Dave (I don't fing know either ) is fighting a "mystery opponent" and the poor guy gets....

Luis Alcaraz Pineda a Real Boxer !!
He's 2-7, but in real fights in Mexico, and he's way longer and can actually box. Absolutely pasting poor B-Dave to head and body.
A mystery fighter ffs ! I don't know how much B-Dave is getting but it ain't enough !

Its no different to white collar. Nothing like amateur.

Its really bad quality, but still a bit entertaining
I only pay 1.99 pounds a month for DAZN.

Yeah when it was that cheap it was no-brainer.
Agree this is bad, but entertaining.
I'm sure I'd enjoy it if I knew who they were - like why is Salt Papi vs Brueckner such a grudge match ?

[mickey1975]

Ken Curtis is judging, along with Jack Goodwin (a very well respected amateur judge round here).

I still pay 1.99. Josh is a poor mans Frank Bruno without a punch

[mickey1975]

Papi looks like a young Shane Fury.

Papi looks like a young Shane Fury.

Better one punch KO !

And now they're ringside with.... Louis Theroux !? WTAF
He's up for fighting a 5'2 woman apparently...

Only in Foxy-Boxy !

Slim vs Zanetti is another great fight.
Bad fighters generally making good fights tonight - I guess in the short time they have to 'learn the sport' they only learn to attack, and can't defend or move ?
Fun night anyway.

As you say it's packed and the crowd seem happy.

[skanksta]

whatever's this shit is on dazn it's awful

Slim vs Zanetti of course ! *
It's better than a 40-36 undercard we've all watched a thousand times.

* Edit - For The Misfits Boxing LHW Championship of the World I should add

[dan28uk]

"fight of the night "

[skanksta]

"fight of the night "

Do you think Slim should 'slim' down and fight for the Misfits SMW Championship of the World ?

Bet she got in by the back door again .

[skanksta]

And it is ALL OVER !

That was a good KO tbf.

Of course it is, they both on a level playing field, we see far bigger mismatches in professional boxing every card

[emallini]

DAZN is trash.

I'm drunk
