Floyd Schofield vs. Lucas Bahdi | FIGHT HIGHLIGHTS

Floyd Schofield and Lucas Bahdi have given DAZN Boxing viewers more to discuss than punches. Beneath the fight highlights, several commenters question whether moments involving Bahdi should have been counted as knockdowns. Those are viewers' interpretations, but the attention to the refereeing is unmistakable.

The highlights reached about 420,000 views in their first day, compared with roughly 33,000 for a regular upload. The comments arrived at nearly ten times the usual first-day volume, making this an unusually busy discussion as well as a fast-starting video.

Not all of that conversation concerns the official. Some viewers focus on Schofield's grit, while one compares his style to Tim Bradley and Shawn Porter. Others consider how he might fare against Gervonta "Tank" Davis or Shakur Stevenson, turning this bout into a discussion of possible future tests rather than an announced matchup.

DAZN also gave Schofield a separate Short, with a title describing him getting rocked before making a comeback at the end. That clip and the full-card highlights both drew larger-than-usual early audiences, though the dedicated Schofield-Bahdi highlights attracted the most views of the group.

Elsewhere on the same card's upload shelf, Ricardo Sandoval against Sergio Mendoza supplied another strong draw, with DAZN billing that highlights package as an upset.
