We are a little over a month away before WBC welterweight champion Mario Barrios (29-2-1, 18 KOs) defends his title against International Boxing Hall of Famer Manny Pacquiao (62-8-2, 39 KOs) on July 19 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, NV. With that said, PPV.com, one of the streaming platforms hosting the event, has released the price to purchase the fight card.
It will cost you $79.99 to see whether Pacquiao can turn back the clock for at least one night against Barrios and make history. If the main event isn’t a fight that helps to justify the cost for you, then maybe the rematch between Sebastian Fundora and Tim Tszyu can if it’s anything like the war they had last year. That fight alone may be worth the price of the PPV, or if you go further down the list, the rematch between Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz and Angel Fierro could be the one that steals the show if it’s anything like their February fight. Either way, the fight card is intriguing enough on paper to make fans think about whether to purchase the event or not.
PPV.com has been a welcomed alternative for select fights, targeting customers who want to see the fight but do not have to sign up for a subscription. Additionally, having the option to live chat with guest hosts from the boxing industry adds a nice touch to the experience. FightsATW has been asked to host some of the wrestling events that are also hosted on PPV.com, and from those experiences, the fans seem to get a lot out of it.
The announcement of the PPV price comes just days after Pacquiao was inducted into the International Hall of Fame. The 46-year-old Pacquiao looks to make history, while the 30-year-old Barrios looks to define his legacy as a fighter and world champion. Now that we know the cost of the event, only one thing remains, and that’s who comes out on top when the two fighters meet in the ring on July 19.
