Anybody read anything about who's officially promoting this card and who's carrying the ppv stateside?

One of these days there will be a great documentary made on DAZN. Ups and downs, near death with covid. Their soccer super league scuttled but trying to make a comeback. I wish they had better content deals here in states but their international portfolio is solid. They've been great to boxing.

Hey Dan! Has anyone done a profile on Turki Alalshikh or a podcast with him? As a boxing fan, I would be very interested to learn more about him as an individual and how he came to be a huge fight fan since he is shaping so much of the boxing landscape these days. If I’ve missed something you’ve already done could you hit me with the link? Many thanks?

If I was Anderson I would not be fighting wilder at this stage

Now I'm starting to be worried, that I'm gonna get priced out lol. Feeling a bit like one of those old "One Day" Wrestlemanias that were six hours long. Wow.

Are any of these guys LA fighters? Odd to have a mega event in the city without at least 1 local. Mares maybe? Not sure he counts at this stage though.

Andy Ruiz,,Pitbull, and Vergil will help move tickets. I think this event will be a sell out. How it does on PPV is another question. Not sure any one fight really qualifies as a PPV Main Event. Tszyu/Ortiz is the closest one. And they've got small clouds lingering over their heads. No title at stake, Tszyu coming off a loss (controversial or not), and Vergil with his weight concerns. Hopefully the tickets and PPV prices are reasonable. Should be fun. If we just enjoy the fights and not nerd out on the details. This once lol
