Where are today’s cheapest PPV deals?
You won’t find much difference in price in any countries showing the fight. Unlike other fights, such as Usyk vs Fury where there was a great deal in Usyk’s native Ukraine, Beterbiev vs Bivol is consistently priced around the world.
In almost every country, DAZN is the broadcaster that has the fight. Most currency conversions translate pretty neatly to the US benchmark of $25.99 or the UK mark of £19.99. However, there are some minor discrepancies…
In Ireland, the price in Euros matches the price in British pounds across the water, which is $20.92. In Sweden, the 215 Krona you’re paying translates to $20.18 USD, while 655 New Taiwan dollars sneaks in under the $20 mark. However, the cheapest deal goes to Canadianswho are also paying $25.99 but in their own Canadian dollars – that’s US$18.26.
The most expensive is Switzerland (is this any surprise?), where it’s 25.99 even in Swiss Francs, which is US$29.
VERIL ORDISH JR VS ISRAK MADRIMOV IS UNDERWAY
