    Yes, i foresee that he will get richer too! uh, obviously. cos UFC are doing good business. that doesnt make you a sage and it doesnt create a consipracy.

    You think he wanted all the comments on videos relating to this topic to be "How do you stream it? whats your source? who has a good torrent site?"

    Yea, thats great publicity. What a wily old guy! he actually promotes his fights to be pirated, even though he gets ZERO dollars unless its bought through ESPN+..
    The same guy who has shouted abuse to pirates for years...

    wow, i mean i know your name here is alwin1, but might your actual name in real life be Nostradamus?....

    Haha, rubbing some salt in the wound there by calling it "special"

    I hear an old George Carlin joke brewing...

    I think if Dana wants anyone outside of the USA to actually pay for it he can facking book it for some time OTHER THAN a time that suits Americans!

    Even if it was suited for my time zone, i wouldnt pay more than 20$ per PPV,
    This is a free market :)
    And i dont need it to be fully "LIVE"
    cos even live is delayed for several reasons and not fully live, so whats the diff hah

    That's probably the thing he don't realize with people who don't' pay, if it came down to it most people wouldn't even care if they watched it live.
    I wouldn't. I sometimes just watch it later on youtube.
    I'm not paying $40+ dollars just to watch it by myself on my computer. If I was drinking with a group of mates I would.
    But these days I like the convenience of not going anywhere, and just having it open in one window while doing other things on my computer and chatting to mates online at the same time.

    That’s the thing. For $20 people like me - fans who love the sport but feel like they’re taking the piss with their pricing - would buy most of the PPVs. I’d pay 20-25 for the convenience of a reliable stream at 1080p/60fps. But then I hear even their service is unreliable but that’s another matter.

    I bet there’s at least five fans like me for every one who pays $70 for a fight card. That price is just too far from reality or a reasonable value for most people

    I just had a look and converted the price to American dollars. It costs 28.71 US dollars to watch it in my country legally. Compared to $70 US dollars ESPN.
    F that.

    He is a great fighter, but not a legend yet.
    Perhaps 'legendary' (having attributes of or pertaining to a legend), but not yet "A Legend".

    Some will say he IS but they don't understand the term.
    Then again, language changes over time, and "Legend" may come to mean something different than in the past.
    As in "Kim Kardashian's ass is Legendary".

    Well, Conner took on the 'asshole' role in the UFC and played it so well because he really is a true asshole to the core.
    He's also done good things ..Credit where it's due...
    But blame where it's due as well, and his example and influence overall?
    I guess might be a slight detriment to society at this point due to the amount of people who are still 'fans'.
    But the story is not finished.... The legend is not yet written.
    Dat ass still has some miles in it...

    Damn Mcgregor had so many chances to rain down but he lost. What a shame.

    I remember the Direct TV days and the card programmers, they were always battling the hardware hacking of their cards running emulators for the cam rolls. Dishnetwork ( Echostar) was the worst though.

    At this time Media itself is under a heavy attack just like the Music industry and the RIAA lawsuits in the early 2000's for Mp3 downloads. It's a different time now, old Media ( Faked, staged and scripted news) is dead. The movie industry is in the same situation as the Mp3 situation decades ago.

    you have just to make people think that they are way smarter than you and they will do the stupidest things. You and others are basically doing free promo for him. Most people are actually against piracy. He could just delete all these piracy comments on social media but he doesn’t. He knows that people who pirate these events wouldn’t pay for them anyway so why not use them to make free promo for him? Shit is trending everywhere and discussed everywhere. People who never heard of dana or these events hear from them and are getting interested. Successful people aren’t idiots especially people in the entertainment industry are pretty aware of piracy and know that piracy can help you to reach way more people. Rich people stay rich by simply only doing what benefits them. If what he does would hurt him, he would stop.
    If you somehow still think that you hurt dana by posting about it and laughing about him or streaming, well that’s okay but I highly doubt that it will hurt him in any way and I believe that’s exactly what Dana wants.
    Every Promo is good promo. People who pirate it will pirate it anyway, no matter who says what but people who wouldn’t are getting introduced to dana and the ufc by people like you who laugh about Dana without realizing that they are being fooled by him. Marketing is not a conspiracy.

    You must be a part time UFC fan and not get the reference. :rofl:
    Yes the irony that your comment is a slight detriment to society.
    Sorry you took it as personal attack about Kim Kardashian and your jack'n. :rofl:

    Well i get the reference to "who da fook..." but don't see how it exactly is appropriate.
    Of course, Connor's use of it, and for that matter the use of it in general, is pretty idiotic.

    So, how is my comment any detriment to society?
    I assure you that I can provide good argument to support that claim...
    But I am asking YOU to provide an argument to demonstrate that you even understand what you are saying.

    You ROFL but I don't believe your emoticon. I think you are raging behind your fancy watch.

    do you think the guy knows anybody in tech? maybe he's got a hired gun who knows a thing or two about watermarking and spyware and they want to try out some ideas. a lot of talented hackers go into the security business. kind of like how delinquent teens end up becoming cops from time to time.

    From your reply you definitely don't get the reference. :rofl:
    Your petty comments about someone legend status and comparing someones achievements to a insta celeb's ass isn't a detriment to society? :sad: :rofl:
    ROFL emoticon is because that is what I'm doing. :rofl:
