With barely three days left, the excitement for Canelo Alvarez vs. Jermell Charlo is at its peak. And while Alvarez declared that he would exhibit something “different,” Charlo announced that fans would call him “great” and appreciate his skills on the night of 30th September. In this context, it was recently reported that the PPV price of the bout will be $84.99 in the US.

As a result, a number of boxing fans bemoaned the fact that “boxing” was no longer a commodity accessible to the working class people. While US fans were left utterly disappointed with the PPV price, DAZN, on the other hand, dispatched a “gift” for their regular subscribers in the UK.
