    I thought this was 65 $ ? If its 75 $ that means its about 80 $. Im probably not going to get it then ,I could understand if Wilder had PPV's before but this is just being greedy now. not only that but looking at the styles this looks to play out as a point sparring contest at least up until late rounds,80 bucks to chance a clash of styles? I'll pass ..i'll try an out dated fire stick we have in the house and hope for the best.

      Huh? The PPV is $75 bucks for HD and $65 bucks for SD. SHO is just doing what GBP did with the Canelo/GGG PPV making it available via stream.

      So you would have purchased the PPV if it was $75 bucks but wouldn't if it was $80 bucks?

        75 bucks equals 80 bucks maybe more depending on the tax and fees..etc..65 bucks is 70 bucks. Dollars amount to a lot,a dollar here and there and you are overpaying by 20 bucks soon that is basically the shift to what an already expensive 65 dollars is if you are the sole payer. I work as a bank manager so you cant really talk to me about numbers its just like betting a football game and the vig creeps up on you when you have to pay say 50 dollars on a 30 dollar bet.

          PPV is so outdated. People don’t want to pay these type of prices anymore. Streaming services are the future.

            It’s sad that most of USA doesn’t even know who Wilder is. No support for a USA heavyweight champion. And if he wins and there still isn’t any support, even worse.

              I sure can talk to you about numbers.

              And I don't know what service you use, but when I buy PPVs (Canelo/GGG and McGregor/Khabib), there was no tax added to the fee. I paid $64.95 for the UFC PPV and $84.95 for Canelo/GGG. At not point did I get charged additional tax or other fees.

                Anybody know if we can buy the fight on the PS4? I know Showtime is on Playstation Vue for $8.99/month. Anybody bought a PPV on the PS4 before?

                  They could sell way more if they dropped the price to $30 or $20.

                    How about free ? Ali fought on TV for free. Lenard was free also.

                      And make less money. Or are you talking about just the stream price point?
