    I used to pay $135 per month for cable and internet, without any premium subscriptions like HBO or Showtime.
    I cut cable. Now I pay $60 for internet and get DAZN through Roku for $10 a month (I grandfathered in to original pricing for jumping on board early). But $20 per month would still be worth it.
    Screw PBC PPV. 600 percent higher price and a complete rip off for a bunch of fights that aren't the ones the fans want and deserve to see for that much.

    I understand. However, in my situation, the lowest I could possibly get my cable/internet bill to is about $125 to $130, and that would be the most basic package. I don’t really even have the option of switching providers, as my apartment complex requires that we use Charter Spectrum. Even if I cancelled my entire cable/internet package with Charter, I would still get billed for it by my apartment complex as part of my monthly rent. My apartment complex is owned by one of the largest, if not the largest, publicly traded, real estate investment companies in the U.S. They require all their tenants to pay for Charter Spectrum, regardless of if they want it or not. They have a deal in place with Charter where they basically get kickbacks for forcing their residents to be Charter customers. I believe it was challenged in court several years ago and upheld as being legal as long as it’s specified in the lease agreement.

    Just out of curiosity, how much data do you get for 60 bucks? I heard you guys get robbed blind over there.

    Lol. Yeah they are all awful. Usyk vs Takam is interesting just to see how he does at HW. The problem with the PBC ones is that, although they are easily better fights, the vast majority are hardly worth the price. Just take Wilder vs Ortiz 2 at $75, that is a complete joke.
