      fights on YouTube or *******s the next day when they wake up. Now they want to charge £100? LMAO nobody was is willing to stay up till that time for £20.

      The Americans have been getting shafted for years.. The Brits aren't that ****** to let someone shaft them like that.. That fight will sell less than a thousand PPV's if it's 135 dollars.
      How else is mayweather gonna be able to brag about a billion dollar fight?

        They're obviously smarter than Americans paying insane prices for PPVs no matter the cost. Want prices more in line with UK prices? Boycott like a MF, in mass numbers. You'll see prices here in the States drop down to a respectable rate. But that will never happen. Not here in the land of 'we love out of control capitalism til we hurl'.

              I think if they charged more the Brits would pay for it. Only one way to find out. I mean I've seen them fly half way around the world just to watch Rick Hatton get his ass whooped by Floyd. You really think they wouldn't cough up a little more dough for this fight?

                      For a kick off, Vegas fights start around 5am in the U.K.

                      Secondly, a huge amount of the PPV sales over here are from casual fans.

                      Third, it's not a U.K. fighter.

                      Add it all together, and there is no way anyone is paying £100 for a PPV in the U.K. It just isn't happening.

                      They can charge it, but no one would buy it.

                      You'd get away with charging a little more for a Joshua v Klitschko fight, which would be on at a decent hour in the U.K. and would feature a home-grown fighter in a world title fight with a decent level of hype behind them. We like to support our own talent, especially in big fights, the 'Hatton' effect. Casuals lap that up and you end up with football fans etc buying PPV en masse.

                      But they're not so bothered about Mayweather.
