Got $99.99? You’ve got an HD super-fight via Apple. Or you could watch Mayweather-McGregor for 4 cents less — thank us later for that hookup.

Showtime PPV is actually selling the upcoming boxing match in hi-definition for $99.95. Technically, that’s the official price-tag, but Apple restrictions say every cost must end in a “9,” TheWrap is told. So that’s the reason for that.

For people with terrible televisions, the standard definition version of the 12-round clash will run $10 less. Individual distributors actually get to charge whatever they want for the HD upgrade, though a person with knowledge of the deal told us that most will end up just under 100 bucks.

Mayweather-McGregor is expected to be the most widely distributed pay-per-view event of all time. The welterweight bout will be available for purchase through cable, DBS, telco and streaming providers nationwide, as well as UFC.tv. Additionally, Fathom Events will air the action in some movie theaters, bars and restaurants.

Note: Anyone who buys the fight on the Showtime website will only be able to watch on the web. Those moneybags that choose to make the purchase on Apple will only be able to watch on Apple devices.

Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor will take place on Saturday, Aug. 26 at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Doug Adler and 6 Other Sportscasters Who've Been Accused of Racism (Photos)

Legendary sportscaster Howard Cosell was accused of racism after referring to Washington Redskins wide receiver Alvin Garrett as "that little monkey" in 1983, though Cosell denied being racist and Garrett later said that he didn't feel like it was a demeaning comment.
Kelly Tilghman received a two-week suspension from Golf Channel after suggesting that golfers hoping to challenge Tiger Woods should "Lynch him in a back alley."
Jimmy "the Greek" Snyder's infamous theory that black people make better athletes because of how they're "bred" got him fired from CBS in 1988.
Jason Whitlock was accused of perpetuating a stereotype about Asian men in 2012 when he tweeted, as New York Knicks player Jeremy Lin racked up a 38-point performance against the Lakers, that "Some lucky lady in NYC is gonna feel a couple inches of pain tonight." Whitlock later apologized.
Baseball sportscaster Steve Lyons was canned from Fox in 2006, when he jokingly suggested that Lou Piniella, who is of Hispanic heritage, might have stolen his wallet and added, "I don't understand him, and I don't want to sit too close to him."
ESPN's Rob Parker drew criticism when he seemed to suggest that he didn't feel Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III was black enough, asking, "Is he a brother, or is he a cornball brother?" and saying, "I keep hearing these things. We all know he has a white fiancée. There was all this talk about he's a Republican."
