The fight between Fury and Usyk would see the first undisputed heavyweight champion crowned in the modern four-belt era of boxingThe UK record for boxing PPVs on major broadcasters has been steadily increasing in recent years.
The maximum fee leapt up from £19.95 to £24.95 when Anthony Joshua rematched Andy Ruiz Jr on Sky in 2019.Late last year, the price rose again as AJ’s rematch with Oleksandr Usyk hit £26.95 on Sky.set to be the biggest fight of them all, there is speculation in the talkSPORT studio that the price could raise significantly once again.Spencer Oliver was first to give his opinion during White and Jordan on Thursday as he said: “I think we’re definitely in the 30s.
“I think probably around £34.99, possibly even £39.99, who knows? I think it’s gonna be more expensive.”“When you look at what we pay for PPV over here against what the Americans pay, it’s very different.“But we’re not in America, so it’s not really relevant.“But these guys are demanding such a huge amount of money that I think Spencer tragically may be right.
Jordan continued: “You start to get into the territory, if you’re getting a million-and-a-half or two million buys. “It’s the scale of this fight. If you’re charging £40, minus the VAT so £32, you’re getting £50million/£60million in PPVs.”
