Why the hell wouldn't they if they got them in a library? Let's not make up that it's ethically wrong now
Some ppl can be upset about the weirdest things.

Why would I by upset about them, I watch them gettin time to time?
And I didn't say (or imply) it was wrong at all. Just adding some context to why their numbers might be that good.

The DAZN pendulum has slowly swung back for them. Was looking grim for a long minute there.
People fill me in. Are any of the others worth it aside from PBC, Top Rank? I thought HBO gave away boxing related media and coverage?
I got Kayo and Dazn subscriptions. Between that i get 75% of the non ppv fights.

Fair enough, imo it rather has to do with a couple of other factors
1 - Stars and big names like Canelo, AJ, Ryan Garcia, GGG
2 - Global approach unlike their rivals
3 - Many different boxing shows covering the whole sport almost every day, not just the fighters that fight for them

What's on Kayo?
Can't speak for UK (?), in my country, Hungary though DAZN is the only one that expanded, happened in December I got it ever since. Since then they show the GBP and Matchroom cards plus the TV usually picks up PBC, TR or Warren cards if they are interesting. I guess with SkyShowtime coming we will have access to Showtime's boxing content through that and if PBC moves from FOX to Paramount+ then those cards too. I think SkyShowtime goes to the UK too. I'm guessing that means all the Sky cards too cause the will have a boxing program too.
Warren and TR remains on TV/illegal stream
On a different note: It's funny that as much of a deal YT boxing, specifically thinking of Jake Paul's cards in the US, the TV here didn't even pick it up and they showed Rigo vs Casimero a few weeks back.

LOL, yeaaaaa I agree with them covering not just fighters that fight for them, which is right in line with my original point
DAZN has had a subpar year, the GB cards headlined by Zurdo/Barrerra and Ortiz/Mean Machine were the only notable cards of the summer and Usyk/AJ the only real card lined up for the fall. They're robbing their US customers, a YT subscription number means nothing.

As long as the casinos paying the bug bucks that these venues can't afford I guess the big fights will stay at the casinos...
