Is UFC the most expensive sport to be a fan of?

[BjPenn2017]

Seems like it to me. Can't think of any other sport that charges 64.99 or whatever outrageous price that only climbs for PPV's, then on top of it FP and and extra channels because the prelims are always spread out.

Then on top of it cards like UFC 223 regularly fall through, leaving people who bought tickets/go on trips in a tough spot, for a sport that I'm sure costs a lot more to attend when compared to others.

A card falling apart in the last week like UFC 223 has is deflating as fuck for a fan like myself. Irresponsible on the UFC part for not having a real back up plan, and letting what was going to be one of the best MMA cards all year into a shitshow that even Conor found his fucking way into.

This whole event went from being the best MMA card of the year to being debacle of the year that I'm honestly conflicted about buying now just from all the bullshit surrounding it and UFC irresponsibility about the whole situation.

I feel sorry for everyone, the fans who got tickets to go, the people hyping this card us as card of the year to their friends, and most of all the fighters who were involved in all that bullshit that can't even fight now.

Thank god Al stepped up and Khabib accepted the fight so all hope isn't lost yet.

UFC wants to be a sport..

the rise in ppv price is bullshit. When people talk about ppv numbers they don't mention the price increases. I'm in Australia and the first cards I ever bought were $30. Now it's double that. It costs nothing to follow other sports

Nah bro team UK ftw btsports has us hooked up. Used to be jelly that you lot got to watch at a decent time but over last few months we 100% have the better end of the deal.

Yeah.... we are required to buy those UFC Reebok Fight Kits for each fighter we support.

Luckily, they look awesome! I wore my Lesnar one to my kid's piano recital. It was all the rage. No one even heard the pianos. All this single mom's... no... just no... UFC is cheap. Go to a buddies house bring him beer with 5-6 other friends, you are good. But, wear your fight kit FFS!!!

They'd look a bunch of rich fuckers with lots of money and free time, because they're not going to see much on TV. The fact that they're a serious fan of it means they follow their team around to the games.

This is also why pro archery is such an expensive sport to be a fan of!

Lawn bowling fans might have to travel internationally and see all the matches just to even know who won!
