Adrien Broner shatters HBO TV Ratings

Broner could easily surpass Floyd. As long as he just keeps winning and shows he aint nothing like Floyd in terms of ducking opposition and fighting the way he did against De Marco. Broner got a better personality than Foyd too.

good numbers considering he was going up against huge college football games and NBA GSP's comeback fight was on at the same time too. Even though it likely under performed given the huge delay in reporting the PPV buys it couldn't have helped matters.

Wasn't terrible, but way below the 1.4 million from before. @brentbrookhouse The Broner-DeMarco fight did a 2.6 and drew 1,050,791 viewers. 24/7 as the lead-in did a 2.1 rating— Kevin Iole (@KevinI) November 26, 2012 good numbers considering he was going up against huge college football games and NBA

This kid is the future money man of the sport. Along with Canelo if he gets big name and beats him on May 4th

I guess having the Pac-Bradley replay as the lead in really did help last time. Just hope Broner shuts up now. if 2.6 is 1 million then what's 2.1 Must be around 600k then or something? That sounds pretty high for a 24/7.

It would have to mean this year. HBO used to do pretty wild numbers for a pay outlet with a more limited reach than it has today. I think Tyson-Holmes was viewed by like 16 million subscribers (and that doesn't factor in all the eyeballs watching in those homes). The fall from the old days, and the cutting of the budget by something like 2/3 since the 90s, is pretty steep. Tyson-Holmes would be on PPV today. Take any Pac or May fight since they became big draws and they'd do more viewers than that. Pretty much any fight that is deemed of interest to casual fans is thrown onto PPV.

ya the ratings must have been really bad so much for Broner having a big fanbase

Pissed off. I read through several pages, finally clicked on the link and realized this thread was from July smfh.

anyone else thinking the last fight didn't meet expectations? They were making Broner out to be a big deal last time, now it's silence. i think the broner-demarco fight underperformed for tv ratings

I just noticed this thread is from July and it was just bumped. Lol. If you look at the date of the 1st post in this thread you can clearly see it was from July

I don't know if any one has mentioned this yet, I looked in the first two pages of this thread and nobody is mentioning anything. Either I got redirected to the wrong link or something but this is what I read. By Johnny Benz, Doghouse Boxing. - The HBO Boxing After Dark card that featured Adrien Broner vs. Vicente Escobedo, and Keith Thurman this past Saturday , nabbed som pretty good TV ratings. If i'm not mistaken, this is old.
