ESPN has reportedly been losing subscribers and revenue. They need a to secure new sources of income if they're to stay relevant. It would seem they've chosen to tap the gambling industry as the logical source.
The gambling industry already has many unofficial spokesman to promote their business. (ex - all those mybookieAG promos Colby Covington and others in MMA cut) Youtubers, social media influencers and personalities with a large follower base may be a more effective method of reaching the public. Than large networks like ESPN.
ESPN's coverage of the Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley fight last night was so terrible. I wouldn't mind if they never covered another boxing event.
Haha that's harsh I do think that they are trying to improve desperately and at the same time they have to stay in business therefore if they do improve I do think they can provide good completion if done rightly.
That's another big sportsbook coming if they'll be able to realize the business soon. However, it might result in some biased comments from commentators if what I understanding is correct because they have lots of sports commentators and they have sports betting platforms as well, so maybe they will serve their interest and could probably hype a certain team or fighter that could make bettors used to make a decision.
I hope they'll be into crypto betting as well, I mean it's okay to start a fiat sportsbook but integrating crypto would be a good idea too.
Interesting I never thought of that. If there is too much money on one team on the books since they announce the games possible leading into another team to swing the bets. Books never want it one way or another they like 50/50 so they are guaranteed the vig.
I think the all are now walking towards this section because it's not only profitable but at the same time it's in demand right now so soon enough we will see fnem getting involved everywhere maybe on the forum too who knows ?
I think they might provide good competition for sure.
