% of people who buy PPV's vs those who don't but watch/stream

[ArtOfDrowning]

30-70? 30% pay and 70% stream? Maybe something like that.

 

[Diunx]

Already preordered 228, well worth my $65, wish I could pay more for such an amazing card tbh.

 

[daniel san]

I live in Europe and no matter how good the card is, I'm not staying up late to watch it. I've purchased a 1 month subscription to Fight Pass 2-3 times when there have been cards in Europe so I can watch it live with friends. I would not consider spending $60 to watch an event, $10 (for Fight Pass) I think is acceptable though. I could move from downloading to paying (a reasonable price) if we actually got some proper events in CET time zone.

they are if the fighter gets a cut of the buys.

You aren't going to convince the hypocritical scum

 

[Xaero]

I should ask the pub where i watch the fights if they stream illegally. lol

 

[The_Buckanater]

I watch them on Kodi. I just pull up the BT sport 2 stream from the Joker sports Kodi Addon. It’s been a little while since I’ve paid for a ufc fight.

Liked for your commitment. I dont care what others are payed.

 

[Irresponsible Dad]

i still think karate is cool. Cobra Kai on youtube is an amazing show... highly recommend

Best show ever

Vale Tudo?
Pride?

Foreign bs

 

[Bend NvR Break]

I go to a local bar that shows the fights. They don't charge a cover fee.

I can't deal with streaming. The sites are full of malware and viruses and they go down every two minutes if they work at all. I don't know how so many people deal with it.

It's easier if you don't get the stream in English.

Polish or Spanish is our go to streams.

Foreign bs

UFC was created by foreigners trying to copy Vale Tudo remember?

 

[Irresponsible Dad]

Nope. Two casino mobsters a la boxing gym manager and a comedian named joe got together and created MMA

 

[Rebli19]

They are free in my country, and I wouldn’t pay the amount people on the US pay, it’s way to high

Pretty sure that boxing gym manager persuaded the casino guys to purchase the UFC from Brazilians for like 3 mil.

what abou ma boi bruce lee?

 

[UFCBlackbelt]

I've grown so close to my streaming buddies.

 

[BobbyHillComedian]

10-13 years ago my circle of friends and I would either buy all PPVs or go to BWW to watch.

Then I got a job at a sport's bar that showed all the fights. Last ppv I saw there was GSP vs Hendricks.

Currently today my smaller circle of friends and I will only buy or go to BWW for stacked cards. Everything else can get streamed or skipped all together.

Yeah that describes me pretty accurately too, except the job at a sports bar.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

what abou ma boi bruce lee?

Talked real good but no one has ever seen him actually fight.

 

[Rondas Pillow]

I quit buying ppv when they figured out they could reduce it to 4 fights and some wmma bullshit and some people would still pay.

 

[BobbyHillComedian]

The same people who steal PPVs later complain about fighter pay. Poor bastards. The base pay would be 50/50 if people didn't steal

What would actually happen with any increased revenue:
