    or get slingtv 20 bucks a month for 35 channels. then when there is a fight on hbo add hbo for the month of the fight for 15 dollars or 10 dollars for showtime. while waiting for the fight during the month watch past fights on demand.
    at the end of the month cancel showtime and hbo. Lately on slingtv when there are big fights hbo and showtime offer a free weekend yay!

    besides I will be damned if I buy another subscriptions, I already have 25 channels I never watch. 20 bucks a month is enough since tv sucks anyway.

    I watch news and sports on television thats it. Prime movies are free, netflix is a good deal for me, I like movies.

    Are you drunk or stoned? Currently there are only a few PPVs a year, and most major champs are showcased on HBO, Showtime, ESPN, and other networks.

    My cable bill is 241 goddamned cocksucking mother****ing dollars a month. Nobodies being stingy here, ESPN has 6 channels, and own 3 or 4 more, they have plenty of empty time slots they can fill, they make about 11 billion a year in revenue from ads, and could make mountains of cash if they broadcast and properly promoted Manny-Lucas on ESPN, but instead, they think they can find a way to sucker hardcores into giving them even more cash out of their pockets as a trial run with expendable programming, if this proves successful, eventually this'll lead to more and more content that most viewers get with their basic cable package on ESPN, which they already pay money for, being gradually moved to their Premium package. You're doing nothing but aiding filthy rich bloodsucking pigs to rake in even more money, which at this point they don't need, meanwhile the fighters themselves, who are risking their lives in the ring are still being paid a mere pittance. It's a glib shameless cash grab, **** 'em.

    HUH?? U gotta be fing kidding me. Usyk-Gassiev is gonna be a FREE STREAM on their WBSS youtube channel!! Screw the old corporate dinosaurs HBO and Showtime. the media game is changing. people are starting their own vlogs, youtube channels, no reason to join the old school outlets, they are dying. Eddie is not like "every other promoter", he is an entrepreneur. what do u have against entrepreneurship

    I understand that streaming is the way of the future and that the cable companies have taken advantage for so long and are probably a generation of or two away from being dinosaurs my primary concern with the switching format is how will bars and restaurants show the fights to the public many hard cores are aware of the existence of the sport and the fights but a lot of potential fans could be in a bar and see a fight basically by accident. I mean unless the apps get that much content but bars typically run a sports.channel all day from regular tv

    Why does TV need to die out exactly? Could someone please explain that to me. So... people don't want to be inconvenienced by and attached to their what?.... homes? Like being attached to your ****ing iphones or laptops is preferable. There's absolutely no reason for TV to be phased out just because this upcoming generation is brain damaged and think its better to watch a movie on a 5x7 goddamn tablet that they have to hold up to their face, or fry their nuts off with. You're all a bunch of ****ing weirdos (not you UTF:sisi1). What in the hell is wrong with hanging a widescreen off the wall, and watching TV like a normal person?:shakehead:
