Comments Thread For: Canelo-Bivol DAZN PPV: 59.99 For Current Subs, 79.99 For New Subs

Yeah should be 39.99 to really reward it's subscribers this going to leave a bad taste

It really does considering their initial promise, even when they doubled the price I didn't complain. Now they force new people to not only buy the fight but a month subscription as well. The hope there is that some people forget and they squeeze another month out of them. That undercard better be stacked if they want to make money, because as it stands I don't plan on purchasing.

Arrghh - Time to fly the pirate flag,

I hate doing it, but these companies are certainly making it hard not to.

Lol, the sport of boxing loves to insult your intelligent.

PPV will never be dead. PBC tried it with the free boxing for all, DAZN have tried, not sustainable.

Exactly. DAZN & PBC had good ideas in theory, it’s just not financially sustainable anymore. None these companies are just gonna keep losing money. & as far as DAZN idk how they’ve been able to last this long without PPV. Guys like Canelo, AJ, etc. purses are so high, there’s no way to recoup that money without PPV

PPV won’t die because people will always still buy them. If they lost money on PPVs they wouldn’t do them.

give it about 5 years or so $100 PPVs will be the norm & people will still pay.

Starts with every Canelo fight and soon you're be paying $80 for Regis Prograis vs Jesse Vargas. Will DAZN, like the premium Networks, start to charge PPV for any fight worth a damn or would we at least get to see Golovkin vs Murata on a normal sub?

That’s been pretty the trend as of late, look at what PBC has been doing with PPV, Ruiz-Arreola, Ortiz-Martin, Tank-IssacCruz, Tank-Rolly (initially) Charlo-Rosado, Thurman-Barrios, Tank-Barrios. And all those fights did terrible numbers. If that’s not stopping them, I don’t see what will stop anyone else from following suit

What happened to eddie hearns ‘PPV is dead’ rant? Eddie talks so much nonsense it defies belief

[youbeight]

So it’s basically the same price regardless if you sub or not lol.

[youbeight]

Tbh I don’t blame them for charging though. At the end of the day that’s the cost of doing business with someone like canelo. It was the very reason we weren’t getting Floyd on PBC. What’s funny is that a lot of outlets tried free boxing and while I enjoyed it you’re too niche of a sport and too many people hated on the free fights regardless of the quality because they’re fans of promoters over the fighters.

nope. see you in September though

At least Saul is fighting another champ. Pbc charged 80 a piece for davis/criz and thurman/barrios
