The 12/8 edition of @trboxing on ESPN averaged 1.865 million viewers over the course of the entire broadcast - more than 7% increase from same time slot last year (1.73mm viewers). #LomachenckoPedraza #boxing #Ratings

Not bad, not bad at all. Will peak over 2 million I'm sure. Heisman Trophy presentation with Lomachenko following will likely become an annual thing for at least a few more years.The strong pull represents the 2nd highest rated boxing telecast of 2018 on ANY platform (basic cable, premium cable, PPV, network), only trailing #CrawfordBenavidez 10/13 ESPN show.
