Can boxing sustain 6 PPV cards a year?

[WilkinsOlajuwon]

It was only up until about 4 years ago that boxing had 12-13 PPVs a year, each year, for several years. HBO had basically one a month, and occasionally two in a month, while Showtime did 1-2 a year.

So, yes, it can.

What were the 13 PPV cards HBO distributed in 2008?--I'm sure you know that it doesnt put on PPV cards, promoters do.

The Fisher-Price explanation of boxing economy is adorable.

And how am I a cheapskate? Or are you just saying that because you can't maintain the discussion? You dont have to answer I already know.

I am saying you are a cheapskate because you think them making money is bad for business~

I am simplifying everything for the target~ and you can't counter that either or you would have tried, good try cheapskate~

Unfortunatly yes boxing can sustain it. The most ridiculous thing in sports is paying 70 dollars for a boxing PPV. For 120-150 you can watch thousands of NBA games or hundreds of NFL games. For that price you are going to watch two Mayweather fights.

We already have to pay to watch boxing by having HBO and Showtime. If you think about it boxing is an expensive sport to be a fan of.

LOL, your post was more of a white flag then mine cheapskate, you clearly don't understand how business or economics work.

Capital won't take a risk if the reward isn't there, and the main source of capital in the fight game is PPV.

I love boxing, the wife loves boxing, and we can spend $100 at dinner easily so why not grab some beers, make some dinner at home and watch some sport.

I will buy all PPV!

Just for the record Sunday Ticket is expensive as ****, it is like between 250 and 350 depending on what level you get, without a sign up deal anyway.

Yea I just looked it up it is either 40 for 6 months for the base level or 55 for 6 for the max level if you want to watch games on all your devices.

I don't either, I only knew it was way more because my brother used to get it, he is a die hard Steeler fan and it became not worth it to him a couple years ago.

I don't remember seeing multiple PPVs in 2010. I haven't been a boxing fan forever, so I'm no expert, but I would like to see what years you are talking about?
