I'd do 15 a month for everything.
With so many fights happening per year and a PPV event each month it's a numbers game. They know there are more fights and PPV, one can suck but the others might not. That's where the lower cost of monthly subscription helps compared to $80 PPV. You feel cheated with an $80 PPV and you won't be purchasing again. But if you have a subscription for $20 and you have one bad event, you are more likely to be ok with it and wait for the next events since it's only $20 a month compared to an $80 one time fee. Plus you will feel like you get way more for your money since you have access to lots of events for a cheaper price.Plus they have to consider what happens if someone pays for a fight but feels cheated by the card. Probably turns them into only paying for certain fights instead of the whole year.

Before the pandemic was going on this was the model being used by movie theaters. For people that watch a lot of movies they had unlimited memberships that let them view unlimited amount of movies per month for a monthly subscription price. Movie Pass started it but couldn't keep it going but then Regal and AMC adopted it as well. More people watched movies and used the monthly pass compared to just watching a few movies a few times a year. They got more money overall from those people by having the subscription service. Even people that don't watch a lot of movies saw it as a good deal and would getting the subscription service as well since it was cheaper overall than trying to purchase tickets for movies separately over the course of the year. Plus they would get money from them from their visits from concessions purchases as well.
This500 bucks a year, I probably spend around that maybe more and I think there should be a discount for that level of participation.
