Curious if you're buying the PPV tonight?

[phatron]

Just wondering if any of you guys out there are going to buy these fights tonight and what your prediction on PPV buys for tonight is...I'm not buying them tonight and think it is going to be an extremely low PPV number. I don't think is breaks 200,000.

here are rousey's main eventing stats

02/23/2013 UFC 157 Rousey vs Carmouche 450,000
02/22/2014 UFC 170 Rousey vs McMann 350,000
02/28/2015 UFC 184 Rousey vs Zingano 590,000

I'm going with 500k

 

[Jblizzle]

Not missed a shogun fight in years and years

So I'll be watching his fight then going to bed, don't have PPVs here

I'm assuming you are somewhere in Europe? Do you know if it's like that for all of Europe?

I like the way they stack the card with interesting fights just to maintain the fallacy that rousey is a big star.'
Just have rousey fight and watch the ppv's tumble.
I'm a fan of hers but she just isn't huge draw imo.

 

[Hardkore]

Not even going to the bar and blow money on food and drinks for it

 

[WalterSobchak]

Boycott UFC shit cards

 

[Thrawn33]

I'm buying.

Delusion at it's best lol none of the guys on this card are ppv draws and even the hardcore fans feel like most of these are match ups are of guys who should retire or are close to it

 

[Dragon Punch]

I'm buying.

I eagerly await your customary pre-fight sermon.

 

[Zigmeister]

People who proudly admit to stealing. How ... pathetic. Karma is a bitch man, and when someone steals your bmx bike, don't complain about it...

I think Reebok, Fox and all the advertisers have it all covered, don't your worry...as usual, the UFC isn't going broke, the person taking money out of the fighter's pocket are Dana/Fertitta while Dana is dropping $50K bets at the casinos in Vegas.

That is the real crime...


Here is an idea...if you don't want piracy....how about being smarter than that crowd and the technology to prevent it? Oh wait...they don't really care at the UFC because they are rolling in the $$$$ off the fighters low wages that have nothing to do with PPV buys.

 

[MixMartialFarts]

Nope

 

[MMA_Account]

I will be watching by other means. However in my case, this is the norm.

UFC newb and ronda lover. fair enough. both nogs and shogun is enough for genuine fans. throw in bigfoot and soa and other good matchup. good card.

 

[clumseygenius]

Absolutely no chance and I'm all over the undercard. Main event can go and get stuffed imo. I may, may stream it but I'll be at a house party tonight so we'll see what happens.

How can there still be people like you, I dont get it.. Do you follow this sport at all? UFC 184 sold 590k PPV. Google the maincard.

 

[Mikedh]

You are out of touch with modern mma if you think a Rousey show will flop right now.

 

[Jblizzle]

Definitely not a newb and hardcore fans don't make up the majority of ppv sales. I never said it's a bad card, but again none of those guys are ppv draws and everyone you mentioned except for Soa is coming off a knockout loss

 

[rancid]

I know I'm one person and that doesn't matter but I think more and more people are starting to feel the same way.

I feel the opposite. I thought the promotion was kind of getting stale, but the work they've done on the Embedded series and the Fox Sports network has rekindled a lot of my interest.

...and yes, i am purchasing it.

 

[Headkicktoleg]

No and I hope it does like 200k ppv

 

[My name is]

Never miss a rousey fight

 

[Major Dick]

Not a fucking chance in hell. Reading Sherdog's play by play is free & probably more exciting.
