Fury & Wilder in Movie theaters in the US

[snake33]

Fury and Wilder will be in movie theaters in the us for $25. Do think this will get them a lot more buys ?
And after 12 rounds of unattractive hug and jab Fury will win setting up a rematch.
Wilder isn't as popular as he could be in the US. All the BOMBSQUAD crap is annoying.

I can't imagine this doing well. Much more expensive than getting it at home if you like food or drinks, much less alcohol. It's a nice offer for huge fights. Nobody knows who these two are.

never really seen the big attraction of watching boxing or any sport in the cinema

[Ilya Muromets]

Will it be on DAZN?

[DrDuke]

Gypsy King fools Bronze Bomber! Don't miss the best comedy of the year in the US Movie theaters!

[KiwiRider]

Neither are big enough names to make it viable I think.
Depends how expensive the PPV is.
Anyone know how much to watch at home in the US?
I have heard it will be $35 in my country which is about $30 USD.
For that money I would rather watch it at home and shout at the telly, vacuume down some beersies and pause rewind any highlights.

[snake33]

I'm fixin' to go to the fight with some rum to sneak in my coke and few special gummy bears.
I don't think me and my friends will get shushed at this flick. LOL

The theatres don’t count as buys. Just revenue.

I'd go with a few mates if I lived in the states, but I would be bringing my own cans.

That's before taxes and fees.

Wow!
That's expensive.
I wouldn't pay that. In my currency it's almost a week's grocerys or enough to go to the movies 6 & 1/2 times at full price

Don’t knock it til you try it. I watched ggg Canelo 2 in an Australia gold class cinema. To be able to get the ppv fight in aus you would have needed a Foxtel subscription with a
Minimum of 3 months at 30 a month then the actual PPv fight which was around 50. We bought tickets for 40 each. Massive screen great quality and the whole card plus comfy seats (goldclass), a person waiter button. Was a great experience.

[snake33]

The movie seats where the fight is playing in Colorado are heated recliners. Way cush.

Oh yeah, the UFC is much more popular than boxing here and they run one a month . Boxing ppv is pretty rare these days.

The $25 is a great deal. That $25 is the exact same amount they charged in movie theaters 38 years ago for Leonard-Duran I and II in 1980.

Considering the cost increases of everything in life, how many things can you buy something today for the same price you paid in 1980?!?

ANSWER: Nothing but closed-circuit movie fights like this one!!

Hopefully the powers that be wont figure out what a great deal $25 is in 2018 and bump the price at the last minute.

I bet American fans were a hell of a lot more excited to see Leonard-Duran than they are Wilder-Fury. Even at $25.

Reports have it that Staples has only sold about half the available seats at the arena. A portion of Staples will be closed off.

PPV sales figure to struggle to exceed 300,000.

I can't imagine that many fans will bother trekking to a theater to watch this.

Very few fights in the last 38 years have had the impact or significance of either Leonard-Duran I or II.

PPV sales usually do not include the closed-circuit admissions at movie theaters, so even 300,000 might be a surprise. That's no skin off my back since I dont get a penny of it anyway.

I am used to going to PPVs where a bunch of folks chip in $5-10 each toward the cost and everyone there is generally pulling for the same fighter. I will have no problem paying the bargain price of $25 to watch Wilder-Fury in a different environment just for a change of pace.

[Heretic]

If I had the option to see interesting fight for 25 in theater near me I would definitely go for it.

I am not too interested in Fury vs Wilder.

If Fury was at hes prime I would be. I think hes no where near prime currently.

In the same way I don't care about Pac vs Broner match. I know how it would go prime vs prime. Now the question is just how far has Pac slipped.

If GGG vs Canelo 1 or Usyk vs Gassiev was on that kind of offer I would definitely have gone for it

I hope anyone calling $25 a bargain isn't planning on eating or drinking. Very well calculated, I'd spend more in the theater than I would at home.

You could try dieting for 3 hours. That will bring down the tab.

Didn't you have PPV for Leonard-Duran l?

I think it was one of the earliest major PPV fights. I watched it at a friend's place.

I'm unsure of the cost but it was undoubtedly cheaper than any single $25 theater ticket.

The next year I purchased Leonard-Hearns and recall that it was only $15--although that seemed extravagant to me at the time.

Once PPV hit the Los Angeles market around 1980, fight telecasts at arenas and theaters quickly faded away.

I lived in Michigan in 1980 and there was no PPV there. Back then it was $25 at a movie house/arena or nothing. Not having a job that year, I watched Leonard-Duran II outside a large arena, peering through a window with a good view of the video screen. Watched the whole fight for free (minus the sound) with some other freeloaders.

Although the closed-circuit telecasts faded after 1980 they havent disappeared altogether. After moving out west in 1981 I started watching PPVs. I actually watched DeLaHoya-Chavez I on closed-circuit in 1996 at a California arena for about $15. The most common use of closed-circuit telecasts of fights NOW is when a Vegas fight sells out its live tickets, other Vegas arenas will televise the match on the big screen for a price so they can milk the overflow crowd (not sure how much $$$ since I never went to one).

I don't need to diet.
