Time for you to make your decision. Which fight are you going to pay for? Will it be Mayweather vs. Marquez or will it be UFC 103? Boxing or MMA? For the die-hard fans, the decision is a no-brainer. But for the casual fans, this decision can come down to several factors.
Let’s take a look at my version of the “tale-of-the-tape” between these two sporting events; to see which one you will purchase:
Both events feature a top athlete making his return. Whose return are you more excited to see, Vitor Belfort or Mayweather Jr?
The UFC costs $44.95 and the Boxing fight costs $49.95… Does $5 bucks make a huge difference?
Which event has the better chance of being boring?
UFC sold out the arena and Boxing didn’t… Does this affect your decision?
Both events start at 6pm… UFC has the first hour for free on Spike TV… Will this affect your decision?
Would you pay to see Mayweather lose or would you rather pay to see Belfort win?
Who has a better chance of winning Rich Franklin or Juan Manuel Marquez? Does this affect your decision? Which event has a better chance of exceeding your expectations?
As you can see, there are several factors that can affect one’s decision on which event to watch. It will be interesting to see how this head to head affects the PPV buys in comparison to each sport’s recent averages.
My vote and money will be going to the UFC.. There’s only one boxing fight that I would pay to see and that’s Pacquiao vs. Cotto.. The UFC offers more on their event tonight than Boxing. There’s more fights on the card which means more potential for excitement.
Which one will you spend your hard earned money on?
