How much does the McGregor-Mayweather PPV cost?
If you want to be part of an estimated 50 million people in the United States who will watch the Mayweather-McGregor fight on Saturday, then you either have to find a bar or a friend who will order the pay-per-view, or buy the PPV yourself.
But it’s going to cost you a nice chunk of change. Just the standard definition feed will set you back $89.95. Meanwhile, the high-definition version will set you back $10 more at $99.95.
That’s basically the going rate for a marquee Mayweather PPV. His fight with Manny Pacquiao back in 2015 also sold for the same price point. But despite costing a lot of money even then, it still sold like hotcakes. It had an estimated 4.4-4.6 million buys in the United States alone, which set a new record for the most PPV purchases in fight sports history, and generated well over $400 million in domestic revenue alone.
At that same PPV cost, many expect Mayweather vs. McGregor not only to match, but surpass those numbers. That could mean potentially close to five million buys and total domestic PPV sales of close to $500 million. So, will you be part of those nearly five million buys?
If not, then create a betting account now and just spend your cash wagering on the biggest boxing match of the year!
