1.8 million watch Woods crowned champion

By Clive Bernath: The vacant IBF light-heavyweight title fight broadcast live on the BBC at 11.30pm last Friday(March 4) night between Clinton Woods vs Rico Hoye drew an average audience of 1.4million and peaked at 1.8million, a 17.7% of the entire market for that time.

Those figures are impressive and more than hold up with other more so called popular sports including some premiership football matches. But despite the aforementioned impressive figures and the fact that Woods is the only genuinely recognised champion in the UK at present, the beeb have no plans to show professional boxing in the foreseeable future.

That is an excellent audience considering it started at 11.30pm plus no one knew anything about Hoye except he was a puncher so imagine what viewing figures the BBC would have got for Calzaghe/Woods! The BBC need to sort themselves out on the boxing front or maybe we just need to wait until the current boss retires and hope the new one is a boxing fan

And how bad Hoye is. He couldn't even beat a shot Montell Griffin.
