News UFC PPV's to now be $74.99 USD

[CC27]

yeah I'm not a fan of ESPN doing it each year, should wait a year between it but they are eager to make more money.

Second people said the same shit when UFC moved to ESPN+, when they raised prices the last two times that PPV is dead, nobody is gonna buy and yet UFC just did record buys this year.

People on here who stream the shit dont matter anyway cause they werent buying it when it was 45 dollars and they arent buying it now when they can get it for free.

I think the max is 80 cause thats where boxing lives, Canelo/Plant and Fury/Wilder were both 80. I think thats where they'll end up.

Anyone buying that is a moron. Nothing to do with 'you sound poor' . You is stupid.

You don't even use pennies. Although i could probably buy your house for a few of them.

If they charged $49.99 a month for the PPV, Fight Pass and ESPN+, I would do it every month, no question. They need a package deal.

If they charged $600 a year up front for just all PPVs and Fight Pass, I'm in.

But alone without being able to split the cost, $960 a year with tax just for the PPVs and $120 for FP plus $65 for ESPN+...

Thats still way too much. You know damn well they would really water down PPV cards if they had enough subscribers to a Annual plan. And even at your suggested price point is rediculous. A more realistic full package plan is around $350 - $400. Thats paying $40 for 10 PPV's that most would pass on 6 of 12.

I wish US would boycott this model. Its only going to take a price hike like this to give ESPN/UFC a reality check and see even casuals wont pay it.

UFC shills gonna come out of their moms basement to defends this price. Dana you POS.

This sounds like oxy moron. How can you be a UFC shill if you live in your moms basement. Most moms would'nt pay $75 a PPV.

Most Americans have to work a full day to watch a $75 PPV. Theres nothing to Envy.

They went from $60 to $75 in less than 3 years not to mention the additional $60/yr needed just to order it. Greedy fucks.

They better drop the WMMA and stack the cards or there's going to be a huge spike in streaming.

 

[StonedLemur]

I can't afford that, its way too much money. $75 is disgusting when you are having a PPV so often, they usually have 12 or 13 PPVs per year, its ridiculous.

75 might not sound like a lot but trust me over time it mounts up and mounts up and its a huge cost, its not like a one off fee, you have to keep paying it every month to watch. Absurd pricing.

Yeah I think they are going too far here sir.
Not fuckin cool at all.

 

[EnthusiastCultivator]

Everyone saying they should drop the PPV model don’t know what they are talking about. If they kept this model for so long, it must mean it works. Yeah sure they might get more viewers but will the viewers subscription fee + viewership of ads do more than some casuals and establishments purchasing PPVs? The answer is probably no.

The irony is i have a IPTV service i pay $60/yr for the PPV's, but I also pay for the ESPN+ service which cost $100/yr and for the Fight Nights sometimes i have to use the IPTV service because the ESPN + is lagging like a mofo. If i didnt have a bundled service with Disney+ and Hulu i would have canceled ESPN+ garbage.

It's only going to get worse. Boomers are learning how to stream.

Oh my, I was waiting for this comment. So stupid.

$39.99 in 2006.

 

[cheesus]

75 USD ? They are delusional, ppvs should be cheaper considering they're pumping them out more continuously and are weaker than ever before.

Woah calm down buddy, not my fault you can't afford the PPVs, keep the positive thinking and things will start looking up in your life, you will land that dream job soon an be able to legally watch some great fights while eating something without microwave heating instructions on the back.
