First, let me say, I don't come on here much so I apologize if many threads have been made on this. I wanted to share my thoughts..
When it comes to live PPV events like this, isn't more options to buy the better? UFC's decision to REQUIRE a 5 dollar a month subscription to ESPN+ to have the privledge to order the PPV is ridiculous. Dana White said that streaming is where the future is headed. Well, thats only because of the cost of cable. Make no mistake, when it comes to fixed location TV , cable is far superior due to its reliability and video quality. When it comes to highly suspenseful events such as MMA, I want the option to have superb reliability and not be at the mercy of my internet connection. Also, what about all the people who still cable and don't have a streaming device? Fortunately, it was noted that bars will have the right to oder PPV events through their cable/satellite provider still which is just really clunky and weird. Horrible decision.
