    PPV prices have definitely become ridiculous in the US. I wonder if the increase offsets losses from illegal streaming?

    I still think it presents problems for the fighters because it reduces their individual take. This fight its not a big deal (although their cut of an additional $200-300 mil would be huge) a fight like Ward/Kov it is. Kov takes in much less because so few units are sold.
    I understand where you're coming from. But these guys have way more money than I do so I don't think about how much money they're losing or not.

        1) The undercard, in particular Jack VS Cleverly
        2) it's boxing and i love boxing but i refuse to pay for mismatches
        3) Sky Sports is cancer. They don't deserve my money too
        4) why would i pay for something whose outcome is pretty much preordained?
        5) i also had it running in the background whilst i played a couple of FIFA matches on the PlayStation 4

              I would agree but you gotta think of it like this - Most of the people that stream it wouldn't have the money/be willing to pay for it if that was the only option. I don't get why people are still risking it though, I watched it at the casino and didn't pay anything, for drinks or for watching the event. Plus I won big money on Floyd by stoppage. So overall it was a great night for me! Really enjoyed the fight.

                  I only use my fire stick when it's a fight not on is tv. But I understand, choices have to be made.

                    The thing is Dunn is that I'm a hardcore streamer. It's not just boxing i stream, i stream football, cricket, darts, NBA, UFC, absolutely whatever sport comes on is live streamed because the packages for the sports channel on sky sports are an absolute joke. I know theyv streamlined the packages so it's not a rip-off anymore but I'll give you an example using football/soccer - this Sunday at 1 30 PM, Chelsea played Everton and Stoke played West Brom yet only the Stoke game was televised. Why is the ****ter game being shown but not the better game? Why am i paying to watch these 2 when i wanted to watch the other 2?

                    That's why Dunn, let me stream or let me die

                      A lot of people such as myself stream because we wanna watch the fight but don't feel like it's worth the money it's being asked for it. Promoters and networks only have themselves to blame for so much streaming. They wanna charge $70 for dumb fights nowadays. Yes, I get it, there's inflation as well but some of these fights are not worth $70.
                      basics. Dunn is being dense af and throwing shade at folks for streaming. Bottom line, ppl will pay for what they want. Idk whose battle he fighting.

                      Dunn, you got options on the Floyd/Conor fight? What's your interest in whether folks buy or stream? You been riding real hard on this my boy.
