I remember that the first Harrison vs Williams fight got just over 8 million viewers i remember that vividly because i thought at the time that's 8 million fans who will never watch boxing again lol.
I wonder when the last time this many people watch a boxing match was. Keep in mind the 11 million were just in one country, and doesn't count SKY, ESPN, and the Russian broadcast. It couldn't be any PPV fight, so you might have to go back to the 80's.

In the UK we got a lot of 10 million plus fights back in the days of Eubank Benn Watson and Bruno.
Lads I need a LINK to this please. Could I please have a source which confirms these rating that Kayjay is talking about.
To be honest i always find viewing figures a guide, outside PPV they don't actually know how many people watch an event. I have read in lots of articles that Foreman Ali did over 1 Billion viewers but in truth they don't know. In the UK they have several thousand people with a box that picks up what they watch the TV company's multiply that and get there figure.
