Do people like DAZN?

Post by dogheart »

I've been signed up with DAZN for a few years now. Strictly to watch boxing. They have always been pretty ridiculous with the ppv when you are already paying them -but lately it seems to have gone over the top. Making you pay for the good cards and the fight replays and only giving you the crappy cards. Thinking about cancelling my subscription but I like to watch a lot of boxing and it's nice to be able to watch in real time, at least sometimes. My question is- what is your opinion of DAZN? And, what do you think is the best venue for the money if I was willing to pay a reasonable amount?

Good value for a few years but they are ripping you off now

The whole business model was deeply flawed and they had no effin clue about boxing

Is there some Emperor's New Clothes stuff on at the moment? Eubank v Benn last week was a hype job (good school yard fight but PPV :lol: ), this style over substance show tonight.... perhaps Turki is now relying on William Scull to put on a top level showing against Canelo in order to stop people saying he's not wearing any clothes.

Thought of getting rid of it for years. It has slightly improved lately.

I watch more of my boxing on DAZN than ESPN.

bought both PPV Bivol I+II on it good cards.

Bought Usyk Fury on it

Saw Hrgovic vs Joyce on it recently, Liam Piaro vs Mathias, Catrell vs a couple people in boring fights..

Its not perfect but better than nothing.. was definitely better in beginning and ESPN has dropped off lately it seems

I cancelled my subscription a while ago.

It's just too expensive and they're shafting you at every turn.

I signed up when it came out thinking it was a great idea. Paying a yearly fee with no PPV sounded good to me.

Then they brought in PPV AND doubled the annual subscription during that time when inflation was really high so I cancelled in then - about three years ago.

I think it's well cheeky to charge you & then keep charging you extra for what you've already paid for.

PPV is the US is a fornicating rip off anyway. A similar fight in the UK is about one third of the price, I think.

I signed up when it was £1.99 in the UK.

Was value for my money.. then it went to £7.99 and I kept it for a couple more months.

DAZN is okay, except they should replace Chris Mannix with a more competent commentator.

Also my dazn price is a joke.,

First -advert free, no more ppvs and month by month membership
Now- adverts on every show, many ppvs, adverts on the ppvs, and 4 price increases in 4 years and 12 month lock in deals.
