What Salary Would Make You Pay for PPVs?

[LeBron]

I’m curious how much you would have to make to start paying for UFC PPVs? Or would you never pay? For me it would probably be $250k just because it’s so easy to get it for free. I could never pay for a PPV with women on the main card though. No chance in hell I could ever give a penny of my hard earned money to watch someone that I could get off my couch and KO stiff.

(Can we get a poll with $50k salary ranges or something?)

Hmm that was a weird question

If bitcoin hits 300k then okay i will pay

 

[Khaosan]

The Pink Goof ain’t getting a fucking cent from me.

Superbowl is free and has more viewers makes more money. Take note.

 

[Vehap1]

If UFC became a real, legit sport
with real rankings and "playoffs"

Not this fake-hype bullshit, greatest of all time bullshit, Conor, Lesnar, Rousey, Jon... so bored of the fake hype and overrated shit

One million dollars

I can afford all of them, I just don't think they're good value for the money.

 

[AmonTobin]

It’s about making sacrifices for the sport you love. If fighters can sleep on cots in their local gym, I can live off of cat food to watch them.

For me it's not about how much I make as much as it is about the principle.

I used to pay for PPV's regularly, but when they started requiring an espn+ membership I stopped. It has nothing to do with the money, I could afford the 5 or 6 bucks they were charging at the time.

I just hated the fact that they were requiring a service that I didn't want and brought no value and trying to force me to pay for it.

So I stopped buying and kinda lost interest in the sport. Lately I've been getting back into it because of Poatan but I'm not interested enough to pay for ESPN+.

A program that fits in the year 2024 and not 1994. Get the fuck outta here with your ppv model, ufc

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

I pay for them. It's not that much for me, and I don't want to be bothered with streams etc that reek of computer problems (viruses / hacks / etc). Cheaper and less of a headache for me (being bad with tech) to just pay for em.

 

[Ozze]

If the PPV is good enough I pay for it just to avoid the trouble of looking for streams or they lagging or freezing.

I paid for one month of Fight Pass (25 bucks here in Brazil) and was able to catch 308 and 309.

I go to events once a year or once every other year. I even buy shirts for my son when I go in person. I like to support Uncle Dana and the fighters.

 

[Daniel Henry]

It's not about money for me. I just prefer to watch my fights in a public setting hence why I go to bars. The one time i bought the ppv I feel asleep during the prelims and missed the entire card

Paying for two seevices to watch one fight is ridiculous and cumbersome.

The last one I bought was when Randy fought Nog, so.....

Stick around lol

If it's a good card, then I watch legally from a sports bar, I will for 310

But for something like 309, it's illegal viewership all day

As far as paying the $80 pay-per-view to legally watch at home while also requiring the paid subscription to ESPN+ to even have the privilege of paying that $80, I'd probably need at least $400k annual comp before I would consider that

I get paid well now but didn't grow up rich or anything, so my ideas of what is and isn't worth it are still based on that. Like you can get a delicious dinner entrée for $20, so $80 for a video stream really just comes off as entirely ridiculous in comparison. You can go to a live Broadway show in NYC for like $100 and that's considered a pretty bougie activity, overall the $80 PPV cost is wild relative to the cost of other things

I prefer watching at the pub on Sunday arvo (that's when PPVs are here). It more has to do with how it fits in if I've got other options for the weekend and how it fits in with what else I'm doing. If I can't get to the pub, weather's crap or I'm feeling buggered I will pay if it's a card I really need to see. If it's just good and I'm in the mood I may buy it as well.
