The cost to watch the fight in the US will cost 89.95 dollars standard definition or 99.99 dollars HD. The cost in th UK has not been released yet but it is expected to be around £19-95.

Who will be queueing to pay this in the UK, and to the US members, is the cost for you a 'standard' price what ppv usually costs?

Who;s picking it up? Sky Box Office? I believe they charged £60 for May-Pac. I thought they would charge similar.. Even though the fight will take place around 5am.. :brick:

If we're talking UK then I doubt it. It's not at the level of Mayweather Hatton and the middle of night kick off will harm it compared to Joshua Wlad.

Be an exciting build up but what a comedown when the actual 'fight' starts!

I'm with Virgin, would imagine it will be £26-27 for HD :yay:

Not getting a penny I tell thee.

I find it quite bizarre that they are flying all over the place to do press conferences. Obviously to drum up more finance.

Is this going to be the biggest con since Lance won 7 Tours?

I don't see how it's a con. We know who is who, they're not lying about it.

There is going to be a lot of pissed off people when Floyd wins a boring decision...
again

As George Bush Jnr said "fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again"

It wouldnt surprise me if sky up the cost to £25 for this event. I'm going to the Wembley presser where I expect sky to announce what the crack is.

This is so stupid!!! :witzend:

Pray God it's as one sided as it should be and we never see anything like this again for 20 years at the least.

I'm going to try to and ignore it as much as possible but you just know all the media won't be able to interview anyone in the build up to Crawford-Indongo, Garcia-Broner, Loma vs forgot etc without asking about this travesty. :brick:

I don't know what that means. Are they going to replace either fighter? Mayweather is the best boxer of this era, Conor McGregor isn't even the best MMA fighter of this era with limited boxing experience. What's a con about this? Unless McGregor steams in and kicks Mayweather in the head I don't know how this could possibly be considered a con.

There are many ways to con sheep. Yes we both know who they are and what they do, but its how they do it that counts. One can talk a great fight with this and that and blood sweat and tears and whos gonna do this and that. Thats what sells the fight and makes million for those who take part but lets see whats written on the tin is actually in the tin.

What's going to be in the tin that's not written on the tin? As far as I'm concerned an easy mayweather win is written all over this, do you expect any different?
