Always wanted to be a consultant. Less than half the work, more than twice the money.



I reckon Bruno earnt more in his career than Haye or Audrey will. Eubank and Benn more than Khan. PPV sucks donkey balls, and we should all make a stand against it like they do accross the continent, producers take what they can get so it all just goes free to air.

With respect mate you are taking ****e ... the reason I don't use PPV is because its not available here, but as business models go its more than succesful, if you dont like it you can watch something else, better yet, wait 2 hours and download it for free

I don't go for any PPV's either. That's not the point i'm making.

I dispute the success of the model. Someone like a Tyson can make more profit from it (if he doesn't get shafted by his entourage) but Hatton has missed a trick as will Khan and Haye. How many people pay PPV for UFC? **** all. Seriously, they'd make more from free to air stations, advertising and endorsements.

Man you are just about as wrong as one man can be, the UFC are breaking all kinds of revenue records and i beleive the have the biggest ppv in the history of sport .. Its working for them at the moment .. the next step would to take it the EPL model i suppose and I know they have lofty ambitions ... either way I dont care . i watch it for free and thats all that matters

I don't exactly pay PPV prices for UFC but i do pay for ESPN which it is on in the UK, i only subscribe to ESPN for Premiership football and UFC, in America though it is only available on PPV.

If you watch it too it's full of Advertising so it doesn't just rely on PPV buy rates. They've got to be doing something right, it's gone from a small time promotion to one of the fastest growing sports companies in America
