Comments Thread For: Report Claims More Than 20 Million People Watched Illegal Streams Of Usyk-Fury

This the first streamed fight that I watched that didn't buffer one time

What are you talking about. Michael Buffer was right there at least two times.

And now. For thousands in attendance and MILLIONS illegally streaming around the world...

[N/A]

Both men made an insane amount of money, respectively all the people involved in the fight did so, yet they complain? Of course, there will be millions of illegal streams - how they expect people from the poorest countries (just one example: Afghanistan) to pay a subscription and on top of that additional 19-21 USD?

Once again the price in the US is times higher than the rest of the world, not that I care, but the people there most probably do.

If they experiment for once streaming a high-quality event for a symbolic price of not more than 10 USD (plus the subscription) they will probably sell more PPVs than with their current strategy and will earn more money in the end.

$80+ dollars for 720p? Not a chance

I wouldn’t pay for fights if it was in 8K. Only time I felt like I got my moneys worth were Don King cards back in the days.

I never knew buying PPVs was still a thing haha. Im watching them for almost free.

DAZN was supposed to be a monthly fee of 10-20 dollars for all boxing events and no extra PPV fees. I used to pay that. then they got greedy and wanted monthy sub fee plus insane PPV fees for all fights. *** all that.

Id rather contribute to the sport what I feel is reasonable rather that give nothing I buy some and not others, I want the sport to survive and prosper just within reason, its over priced today but also a vicious circle with such high purses demanded for the biggest fights.

I pay for the internet so whatever it shows is free

[-Kev-]

20 million fake boxing fans.

[MusoMeanderings]

WTF, is it really the quality they stream a highly priced event?! The least they must offer is FullHD at some 50 to 60 frames.

For what? Seeing Fury's nipple hair?
