    No wonder it's a niche sport

    Americans need to boycott PPVs for a while until they reduce the price by 50% at least

        Yep. It's an expensive sport to follow and we never get the fights we want or it takes years to get it. For the amount of money we spend on the sport there should be good fights every weekend

            $0. I Stream PPV's. I do have SHO, HBO, Starz, Cinemax, and all other available cable channels, but would have them all anyway, even if I didnt follow Boxing, so not counting having those as "Boxing Expenses". So literally Zero. I guess The Beer in my Fridge that I Drink while Watching may count as "A Boxing Expense", as would POPCORN, chips, Etc..

              don't think i am going to any fights this year, but i have bought 2 ppvs that i can remember, and boxing is the only reason i have cable TV at all.

              **** is expensive. i wish youcould buy live hbo and showtime without a cable package through the internet. you can watch onlyin withh no tv sub, but to get live boxing isn't possible from what i can tell.

                You can buy Showtime without cable. I don't get Showtime on my cable box. I ordered it on my computer. It's cheaper too

                  I've been a boxing fan in protest for years so I stream or download sh^t later since cutting the cord. I don't even own a f#cking TV to watch fights on ffs.

                  I did notice I spent $0 on boxing last year in a similar thread like this one that I made so I spent about $300ish on boxing apparel from legit boxing apparel sites (big fan of Feint Boxing) + boxers themselves so far this year. Someone needs to make a Tank Davis shirt already btw.

                    No a friend of mine had it, just showed up with some beers. Still spent like $30 then.
