Better for countries where English is not the first language.

It was expecting him to have signed more at this point but it’s still early days. I think he needs one big name and others will follow.

tommy coyle gonna take america by storm

Prob being stupid here but how does this affect the deal with Sky?

Does DAZN stand for something?

I assumed it was just a couple of middle class nobs trying to be "edgy" in stead of just calling it the zone?

Although someone mentioning above the language thing might make sense I guess.

No - apparently we’ll get the same number as last year on UK shows plus 16 additional shows from the DAZN deal in the US.

Just did some quick research..

DAZN first launched in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland on 10 August 2016

It’s pronounces ‘da-zohn’..

With a billion dollars to play with, i find it odd several of the big names have gone on record saying his offer to them was ok, but nothing to write home about, and on a par with other promoters offers. Apparantly he was going to throw the cheque book at the likes of Garcia etc. Something seems a bit off to me. I guess its still early days then?
