If HBO did low-profile PPVs like Crawford/Postol for $25 would you be a buyer?

Not for $25. You can get a crappy ticket for $25. Netflix costs $15 for a whole family. And I'm relatively well off, it's just the whole idea behind cable TV and the PPVs that is outdated. Don't get me wrong - I've bought a few PPVs before, but it's mostly to support a fighter or fighters.. to me, supporting PPVs =/= supporting boxing.

I still wouldn't buy it. I get HBO and they always show their pay for view fights for free the following weekend. I would rather save the $25 and see the same identical fight for free a week later than pay $25 to see the fight live. Call me thrifty or call me a cheapskate but that is what I would do. But in the big picture thats just being a tight ass , do you smoke , drink grog , eat chocolate or potato chips , drink Coke etc what Im trying to do is put it into perspective as of value for the dollar , tell me what is your budget spent on entertainment ?

Under certain circumstances, possibly. Although things are getting so sh*tty that I can't see myself doing this at any point in the near future. The game, overall, is just way too f*cking weak to consider this. A few years ago or more - absolutely. No hesitation.

$ 25 to get these fights happening , for sure I would cheap night of entertainment if you ask me , $55 and then they are milking us like a cow . Ask yourself what can you buy today for $25 .

No, thats more problems not a solution. Squeezing the most money they can out of a declining audience is already boxings business model. Has to change or we will not have a sport in the future.

I would even though fight isn't PPV worthy. Nobody is gonna pay for this if it's 60 bucks, especially if they don't stack the undercard.

Yeah, more people would probably buy those low popularity fights, or chip in easier. If fights were $25, all it takes is two boxing fans to give $12.50. If it's a group of like 5, then everyone chip in $5. A group of 10 would be like literally nothing, money you could find in your couch. And plus, more wings and beer for everyone. This helps two fighters with no elites on their resume, trying to get people to buy their fight for $50 bucks, that's atrocious, I don't give a f*ck how rich you are, don't support that crap. $25 is good though.

I would buy it for 25 I woulda bought the Manny fight too for 25. But I think it was arum thst said that if you are buying the fight then your going to pay 60 regardless

I rather see low ppvs in the $25.99-$39.99 range every other month then the insane $69.95 ones we have now. There's almost no fight in boxing right now worth $70. I wouldn't pay half that for the Canelo-Khan card. I could maybe do a Crawford-Postol PPV with a good undercard for a $25 SD/$35 HD price tag.

No, wouldn't buy those. Crawford nor Postol have done shit. Lemieux is one dimensional to the core, I'd never buy any fight involving him.

If it means that the fighters will come together to make more fights of that magnitude, $25 is a price worth paying. But idk, at some point the volume of pay per view purchases I'd be making would be hard to justify.

As much as I hate paying for more shyt that used to be free, I admit I'd be a much more active buyer if they were under $30. I'm not broke anymore but most of these $55 to $75 ppv prices today are just make me feel irresponsible with my money. I can buy a game that will give 100 hours of entertainment or go to a great restaurant with the wife for that much. Hell, I can sometimes go to the damned event for that much. If you're giving me one name-value fight and some filler, price it accordingly. If what they're doing works best for them, then I'm just wrong and cheap. But, I have a feeling it isn't working and isn't going to work as they're planning.

I know, I know, I hate the idea of more PPVs, especially weak ones. But, between you and I, if events like Postol/Crawford, or maybe Golovkin/Lemieux were $25, would you be buying them? I thought GGG vs Lemiux would have done well at a low price 19.99 or even 14.99. They get carried away with the PPV pricing, but need to be realistic especially when they are trying to build new fighters for PPV, let the initial offering be low. I dont even think big PPVs should be more than 49.99.
