~ 3 Mil illegal views for May-Mac PPV

[Chuckguy]

Man, thats a lot of money that should have gone to Floyd and Conor.

No it's not you fawking dummy! The reason why all these people watched it via stream was because it's free!!!! You regards act as if all 2 million would have paid for the fight. I guarantee that out of the 2 mil maybe 1k would have bought the fight and I'm high balling it

Given the fact the official stream went down.... it seems that these people were justified in not paying for it. The prices of these shows is becoming disgusting.... they couldn't even sell out the stadium and they still broke the gate record.... they are trying to squeeze every last penny out of people... and they can **** off, they have enough money... What do the fans get for supporting the sport through the ups and downs? They get the middle finger and get priced out of buying a ticket or affording to even watch on PPV. Screw these greedy wankers. Constantly paying for everything they ask for, just gives them vindication to charge more next time.

I think you meant to post ******s act not regards. Ironic.

Yes, my comment was based on all 3 mil streams being purchases. So its your opinion that of the 3 mil, only .03% would have purchased it if streams weren't available, and you are high balling that figure.

Interesting.

Yes'sir, friend of mine is a master of streaming online.

Got to watch both the Mayweather-McGregor and Cotto-Kamegai fights without missing either one live.

Entertaining night of boxing.

Eff P, I bet 3 mil streams is a conservative estimate. Just using that, thats $300 mil more in the pot that both fighters would get some of. You figure their take would be what-$25 mil or so?

Thats a lot of money.

Of course there are always posters like MDPopescu that see it differently. He doesn't seem to care that the fighters lose when people stream PPV's.

Why should he or you care what a fighter loses out on? Especially considering how much money they still made regardless of streaming.

The post was just a flash reaction upon seeing the estimated number of illegal streams. I frankly didn't expect the types of responses I got to it.

I'm sure in the 10 minutes since your last post you talked to every streamer and verified why they stream.

If you want to see it and can afford it, you get it. If you can't, you don't. Seems very simple. There were other less expensive options as well, bars, movie theaters.

lol Such a simpleton you are.

People don't pay for everything they want to see. People have different levels of interest in things and sometimes folks can be interested in something but not quite interested enough to pay for it, and so they stream the **** instead... I figured this was common knowledge to everyone but then we always have special people like you that are a bit slower than the rest of us.

I literally.... LITERALLY.. Could not go on Facebook without someone on Facebook live showing the fight. **** was crazy lol.

Who is that in your avi? ***** is bad

most people that illegally stream are young. They have less disposable income and income overall. I figured the reason they stream is because they can't afford to pay for it.

However, According to you, When you are really interested in watching something you pay full price for it. If you are only interested in watching it a little bit, you illegally stream it.

Does this apply to other sports as well? For example, do the people that illegally stream NFL games do so because they are "not quite interested enough" to pay for direct TV or go to a bar to watch?

3 million? Thats low. Most people I Know Streamed. I assume most people Know that their friends did the same.
