    That's a good point. I think they should think about it, or at least vary the prices on PPV. I know if I was in the US, I wouldn't have paid $50 to watch Hopkins-Pavlik accompanied by a ****ty undercard, but if they pushed it down to $25 then they would sell more. I think one stream had about 15K viewers, so they lost a lot of cash right there on that 1 stream alone.
    That's precisely the point I was making. I have passed up a lot of fights because I just didn't think it was worth 50 dollars. 25 dollars is a lot easier for me to justify and I would probably buy them every single time if they only cost that much.

        I think HBO are worried that they will half they price, but not get double the amount of people watching. So they won't make as much money, and at the end of the day they just want as much money as they can get.

        Damn you HBO.

          They were (Tommy). He was Green PR, but he lost his Green powers. Then he came back as White PR.

If PPVs were only like 25 bucks I'd probably buy all of them so they would end up making more money off a guy like me. I wonder if they would see an increase in overall sales if they dropped the price a bit?
              True, what's ironic is I was talking about the same thing in my economics class today and how to calculate what will happen when you change price (whether you'll make more profit or less) using Price elasticity of Demand...... but I need to have a test subject to calculate it (i need to know the change in demand)

                I prefered the Green Zord rather than the white Zord, He played a flute to make it appear........

                    dude, rewatch the old power rangers. not the ****ty new ones. the Pink Ranger, Kimberley, shes hot. no wonder I liked her as a kid.

                    I liked the green ranger more than the white ranger, cause he had that badass flute and that godzilla jackass monster.

                    and oh yea, I dont know why $50 is such a magical number for PPVs. I mean really, that number makes me sick. they need to bring the price down. only really high profile fights should be that much. no one is gonna buy a lesser ppv when its 50 bucks...
