It's very high and you pricing out casuals. but I understand why they doing it. If you don't think it's going to sell alot and only appeals to hard core boxing fans might as well make the price as high as you can and maximize off those hard core boxing fans. What I mean is they don't feel like if we just lower the price to $50 bucks that it will drastically impact the PPV buys and attract casual sports fans to buy. So might as well keep it at $75 milk the die hards who are going to buy it anyway. I think we talking 200K buys or lower.

Lol that's the equivalent of what you pay for 5 months of both DAZN and Espn+.
PBC and Showtime need to come to the realization that most people will no pay for a PPV fight( unless it's Spence/Crawford or Wilder/Joshua). Anything else, they'll find a stream online or wait till it's uploaded.Last edited by No-mas-tias; 11-20-2018, 08:07 PM.

I think this Wilder-Fury PPV is a test run for the future PBC PPV product.
If the $65-$75 price tag does well, then they'll keep it. If not they'll probably lower to $55-$65.

Most casual american fight fans have no idea who wilder or fury are.
If this fight broke 100k I would be surprised. I'd say it would sell 80k , maybe less.

And then at the end be like.. oh and it's 15 dollars if you want to watch it. Even casual fight fans would be intrigued enough to tune in.
But if you tell them it's 75 dollars.. lol, even wilder and fury fans would just stream or wait the next week.
