Ads on Main Card confirmed - No surprise

Are there any legit complaints or just a bunch of bitching? This forum sounds like a bunch of old ladies sometimes.

Who gives a fuck about adds when the fights aren't on? It isn't like adds during a TV show when you get stopped during the good part. Who wants to hear Rogan and DC spouting their half-baked nonsense?

Back before most of you were around, boxing was on regular TV (no PPV or Showtime/HBO until the early to mid 80s, I watched Ali/Holmes/Leonard on regular TV), and there were adds between rounds- but nobody ever gave a shit because the fight wasn't on.

The Paramount thing is a MUCH better deal than having to buy UFC Pass for old fights and expensive PPVs for the better fights. The functionality actually is much better than ESPN+ also. You couldn't fast forward or rewind to parts on ESPN+ because the screen would go blurry. FFW and RWD work much better on Paramount plus.
 
Gonna be a ton of filler. Here is the new Sponsor.

I would like to say we're on the rails to giving up media consumption completely and go back to a pre-TV lifestyle. But people need escapism and vicariousness so much they will endure paying half their paycheck to watch videos and ads and pretend they're happy

THEY ARE TAKING THE FUCKIN WALKOUTS

lol...... you so obviously were not buying the ppv's anyway.
Clown.
 
You caught me. After 50,000 posts on here I have been exposed. I have never watched a fight before and don’t know how to read either
Oh, I KNOW you are watching ALL the fights. You just obviously weren't paying for them. Having advertisers foot the majority of the cost of viewership is a major win for folks that actually bought the ppv's.

Whining about ads???? GTFO. That's when you grab a beer/snack, rock a piss, etc. This is the UFC joining the actually major sports... NFL/NBA/MLB/NHL . This is what it looks like.

This is actually my return to the sport after about 2 years of mostly missing events because it got too expensive. But more importantly I was telling jokes. But hey if you want to take a guy named zebra cheeks on a karate forum super duper serious that’s up to you big dawg.
 
Ehh, ads during live sports are fine, especially fighting. They only get one minute between rounds. Time to go grab a beer and piss out the last one. And who cares between the fights? I don't pay attention to between fights anyway, that's why you have a cell phone at hand.
Spot on. I’ll happily pay my $15 a month or whatever it is with some random ads over monthly PPV costs.

Sounds like a bunch of the diaper wearing basement dwellers are the only ones triggered.

We had it good man. As with anything good, it must come to an end because of greed.
 
It would be nice if ads could be fast forwarded if youre streaming a past event with Premium subscription

I expect ads during live broadcast. At least between fights or 2x 30 sec ads between corner

But for PLE main cards I want walkouts and fights uninterrupted. I dont think THATS too much to ask

Trailers and ads are expected between fights on PLE main cards but if they replace walkouts or even between rounds the vibe of these main cards will be ruined. Just recall Peireira vs Ank 2. Ads wouldve ruined the walkouts, buildup, announcements everything.

Main cards for PLE ESPECIALLY main event are meant to be witnessed throughout, its cathartic. Sell your bullshit between fights, on the undercard, etc
 
$12.99 a month for this and Landman. Fucking kidding me.
I tapped out of Landman somewhere around episode 4 of season 1. Has such high hopes as BBT is an absolute legend but god that writing was such a letdown. I'll let Billy off as it'll be a huge paycheck, but he should stick to writing and directing his own stuff
 
The cards look bad so far and there will be more ads? Lets also ad more social media posts. Watching it live will not be bearable for me. I will download or stream single fights. The production of these slow paste events just sucks too much.
 
But they will not be getting my money. I like the BT sports streams from England and there are commercials on it but those Britts have some weird ass sport book and appliance commercials so they are entertaining.
I completely understand were voting with our wallets here
