$75 dollars for the Mayweather-Canelo fight??

Posted at: 2015-04-20 
Did they already announce how much this fight will cost on pay per view? $75 is ridiculous, unless you are throwing a party with ten friends and charge each man eight bucks admission. The cost of PPV is out of hand these days, and a big reason why boxing is no longer a mainstream sport. I am pulling for Canelo, but there is no way in hell I will order this fight. Remember back in the day when PPV fights were $19.99?

The only way promoters are going to get the message if if we, the fans, stand up and stop buying this stuff. Then, and only then, will fights be put back on HBO or, god forbid, ABC or NBC on Saturday afternoons!

While I admit 75 bucks is a little steep, but let's face it, you're getting 2 of the bouts that all boxing fans have been calling for in Mayweather-Canelo and Garcia-Mattyhysee (which has now been confirmed to be on the card by Golden Boy Promotions). I think it will be well worth it. Plus just get a few friends to chip in on the deal. That's what I always do.

I'll admit, I don't like the idea of the Boxing PPV event charging $75 but after the poor PPV sales of the Mayweather-Guerrero fight and 4 popular boxers, it's a reasonable price.

If your gona watch this fight alone than it is a lot of cash,

but most likely your gona watch it with about 7 friends and family members

tell them to pitch in 10 bucks and problem solved.

watch big fights is better with a crowd anyways.

I stick it to them all the time anyways I watch if for free at friends house all the time.

I think $75 is for the HD version and 60-65 is the regular non HD. And besides if they put Lara and Trout on it it's worth it all. Either way I'm getting it.

It will actually be $65 ($64.95 to be exact). The High Definition option will be 10 bucks more. But with a card like this I really dont see how people are complaining about the price.

showtime needs to recover...

they lost much the last time...

man the only fight worth paying in this fight is danny v. luke..

props to danny, after losing respect from beating washed up aging fighters, now he's trying to regain it by fighting the dreaded matthysse...bravo danny!

Worth every penny...

Please understand, rarw. Showtime needs to recover the loss from the last May v Guerrero match.

THEN DONT BUY IT BROKE A S S N I G G A!!!!!

Even if the Garcia-Matthysse fight is on the undercard.

I'm a fan of these 4 fighters, but 75 bucks....Come on !!!

I'm not gonna pay 75 for this...Just to stick it to them.

I hate to say this, but I hope this event fails !!!

I mean it be awesome to see them maywether is awesome but canelo wat if he beat maywether
