Confusion reigned during DAZN's broadcast of this year's end boxing match between Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk and Briton Tyson Fury.
Seven months after his first victory, the Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk once again beat the British Tyson Fury on Saturday in Riyadh in the match that had boxing fans salivating for many weeks.
By winning on points by unanimous decision, the 37-year-old Ukrainian retained his WBA, WBC and WBO heavyweight belts.
If he imposed his rhythm and hit Fury several times with his left hook, he was awarded the victory 116-112 by the three judges of a fight that the viewers had the greatest difficulty in seeing, this Saturday evening.
On “Dazn, what is this joke, paying 20 euros for a ppv and having a black screen???? What do we do?”, asked this taken aback bar owner. “I have a black screen, I want a refund,” demanded yet another Internet user.
Already in the crosshairs of football fans, the British broadcaster was also criticized for cuts. Subscribers to the DAZN offer for Ligue 1 were surprised to have to pay extra to access the fight.
Finally, there were more people than you might think who watched, live… the bad Usyk-Fury fight. DAZN thus broadcast on its main channel the fight fought between the two boxers seven months ago.
And on dazn 1 he replays fight 1 to take people for idiots too??
