Canelo draws HUGE ratings for Lopez bout on Showtime

[DoktorSleepless]

look at these dumb boxing fans saying that aint big.Its twice the
viewers of wards super fight with froch.

That's like bragging about being twice the size of an ant. That we consider a million viewers huge in a country with 300 million people puts things in perspective.

I'm more interested in the Mexican ratings where they care about boxing.

[Bronard]

That's huge numbers...?

Not really considering it had a decent card too.

didn't pac vs margarito do huge numbers as well in mexico?

[ElBossHogg™]

why do mexican fight fans support these kind of fights?

all because he has pale skin & red hair? wtf

You said it cause he mexican. We go out and support our fighters. We get rediculed for nationalism or what not but we support our fighters, watch their fights, buy their ppvs, buy their tickets. That why Most PPV have to involve a mexican cause the boxing world knows we support our fighters. Now if other poeple will support their fighters maybe you can see your fighters on tv and on main events too.

I bet if this fight was on NBC 2.8 rating with 6 million viewers, Showtime is premium cable, Canelo next fight should be on NBC

[Fetta]

This card went against a huge PPV so this is huge.

[kiaba360]

So is that number for only that fight? Or the average for the entire card? Is there someway to actually know how many people changed channels by the time Canelo/Lopez came on or even during the fight?

he will be fighting on CBS very soon

[sicko]

Not "HUGE" but still very solid considering they was going head to head with a PPV, so if your have 1 million+ still watching your channel and switching away from their PPV to see whats going on Showtime...THAT IS A WIN FOR SHOWTIME!
