3 x DAZN PPVS for around $100 Bucks!

Wow, running to grab my wallet right now.

edit: I don't mean to be cynical, but the transition to a modern, realistic payment system has been extremely slow. Half the viewers (sometimes 80%+) are streaming fights. There IS a way to get everyone in and make it work. We saw that happen with music and movies. To be a PPV purchasing, subscribed hardcore boxing fan in 2025 is what, thousands of dollars per year?

 

That's actually a great deal for the names/match ups.

 

Boxing fans cheering the fact they have to pay 100$ for fights, ugh.

 

Non of these fights are PPV worthy.

 

The Ryan card is worth 25 bucks, I would say. It´s got two good fights and then a really entertaining main event.
Hopefully they add a few more decent fights on the undercard.

 

Six and a half years ago, in 2019, PBC aired all these fights (and about a hundred more)... and none of them were on PPV.

You have to really twist yourself into a pretzel to make a Canelo-William Scull "PPV" a "positive."

You're also paying for Munguia-Surace II on that card and the first fight appeared on a late-night ESPN+ show just a few months ago. Now you have to buy it on a PPV.

These are all ESPN+ shows. Conor Benn vs. Chris Eubank Jr.? Teofimo Lopez, Devin Haney, Ryan Garcia aren't even fighting each other, they're fighting no-hopers.

By the way, PBC wasn't gouging you to watch Lopez, Haney, Eubank, Benn, etc. Those guys weren't on PBC PPVs. ESPN and DAZN have been.

Turki is charging you lesser PPV fees to watch the types of shows PBC used to give away for free six years ago.

For the bigger PPVs, Turki will charge more. He's not changing the world. He's just doing what PBC tried to do. But it took them 10 years to spend a billion dollars (and Arum and Oscar fought him). It's taken Turki about two years to spend that (and everyone decided to take the money).

And now that he's spent a billion and his big unifications haven't made much money, and now the mandatories are coming due, and he has to start charging for even lesser fights.

Because if the fights are not in Saudi, HE has to pay for them himself. And he isn't going to want to lose a billion of his own money on these cards that aren't making money. So now the PPVs begin. And fighters are boxing once a year, maybe twice, like they did with Haymon.

But Turki blew his money about 10 times faster. It's difficult to conquer the boxing world. Even with a billion dollars. In some ways it was easier for Haymon, because the other promoters didn't take his money like he thought. So he didn't spend it as fast as Turki did.

 

You said

Yes, six and a half years ago, PBC was showing these types of fights were free. Now you're paying $120 for them and think you're getting a deal.

 

I buy some especially when theyre good. But I'm almost 40 now so I almost never see fights live...always at work.

Once in awhile though I hit me up some fight parties for sure tho

 

PBC a terrible model and product so am not surprised
