    Default Who has NEVER bought a UFC PPV?

    I'm a big fan of MMA, but I have never once bought a UFC PPV. I see about 85% of the PPV cards live at a bar, or I'll just watch the fights later online (which I end up doing most of the time anyway, because I'll usually be smashed by the time the main event starts). Just want to gauge how many of you guys do the same, if at all.

    I buy 80% of them. There has to be something going on for me to not buy one. Honestly, I'm gonna drop 50 bucks at least on the bar with drinks and food so **** it...I'd rather spend 60 bucks to watch the fights and face a bottle of Jim Beam in the comfort of my crib with a few buddies

    up until Machida/Rampage i had ordered every UFC since 65 or 66. had ordered both Afflictions and Aldo/Faber and paid every cent myself.

    Time Warner Cable decided to be a **** and my cable box wont allow me to order PPV events, only movies OnDemand.


    luckily i was hooked up and watched both Rampage/Machida and GSP/Kos for free with a 100% lagless stream and after that, don't see myself paying for another event for a long time.


    Sorry Dana, blame Time Warner.

    Yeah I usually watch them with the same 4 or 5 buddies. The last one I saw live not at a bar was UFC 84. Being able to smoke pot and not having to flag down waitresses is definitely a bonus. The key is to balance pre-drinking enough to keep the tab low, and staying sober enough.

    Nike is the biggest spender on athlete endorsement deals in the world. Its annual report shows it has signed commitments for $3.2 billion worth of endorsement deals over the next five years. Jone Jones of the UFC alone is being paid $20,000 annually.
