“Shame On U”: Fans Outraged Over DAZN PPV’s Audio Issues During Anthony Joshua vs. Otto Wallin ‘Day of Reckoning’ Main Event

Today marks the conclusion of the combat sports year with DAZN’s highly anticipated ‘Day of Reckoning’ in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, hosted at the Kingdom Arena. The pay-per-view extravaganza had a star-studded lineup, featuring the headline bout between Anthony Joshua and Otto Wallin.

In a co-main event that added to the excitement, Deontay Wilder faced off against Joseph Parker. However, it resulted in a unanimous decision victory for Parker. Amidst all the excitement, the fans got enraged for a moment as the DAZN PPV viewers faced an audio issue for a moment. This garnered a lot of responses on social media.

Fans express their frustration on DAZN

One of the fans stated that this ‘no audio’ problem ruined their excitement for this event.

In their follow-up tweet, they even tagged DAZN to fix the issue immediately.

Another fan complained that they charged so much money and still the viewers have to suffer such problems.

One fan stated that DAZN boxing should be ashamed of their actions.

A fan made a joke about how the silence feels like the crowd is sober and serene at the stadium.

An X user talked about how the audio is facing the ‘Day of Reckoning’ rather than the fighters.

So, the fans were quite annoyed by the technical snag courtesy of the DAZN team. Hopefully, it won’t recur again. However, the fans had to face a technical difficulty with a DAZN event before as well. So much so, that the DAZN even issued an apology.
