Could real boxing title fights move from PPV to Netflix or Amazon Prime & save the sport?

I know title fights make a lot of money on PPV, but most people don’t get to watch them. Could this set up be used in the future to get real boxing back on the map as a major sport like it used to be?

Will they actually be able to broadcast them unlike Netflix right now?

Maybe if they do them on Amazon Prime because the Netflix product is terrible

No matter who houses the broadcast, they will still be PPV

Amazon had a lot of problems their first year with NFL but now it’s light years better.

Netflix better figure it out by Christmas.

I’m just barely too young to remember legit heavyweight boxing, but I think if the model was worked on it could still have a place in American sports. the second Wilder Fury fight(I think, the one where Wilder wore that retarded heavy suit) was wildly entertaining. I don’t know how they fix the problem, but I’d be glad if they did

Prime maybe. Only hope. PPV is dead.

Promotion. More entertaining fighters with character to make these title fights interesting.
