Comments Thread For: Casimero-Rigondeaux Viewership Went Up Throughout Bout On Showtime, Peaked At 307,000

I'm surprised that many people stayed awake watching Rigo run like a coward. Didn't deserve to win one round. Ring Generalship is never running - same reason Lara didn't deserve one round against Canelo either. Rigo is a disgrace to boxing. I'm so glad that Loma embarrassed him the way he did.

Rigo let down everyone involved in this telecast...

Feel sorry for those 306,999 (I'm 1). This fight was cringe.

Not bad numbers for a fight that consisted of a guy are boxed on his back foot the whole night and a Filipino that looked like a complete bum for 12 rounds.

Rigo should quit... He's a disgrace and gave the art of defensive style of boxing glorified by KingMay a bad reputation...

Confusing sentiments with truth

Don't believe the BS!

Nielsen doesn’t track streaming viewership, thus totals for Showtime and ESPN include only those that watched on the linear channels. Neither Showtime nor ESPN release streaming viewership figures, either....................................We don't track!..............................LOL!

It seems to me that the SHOWTIME subscribers have better judgement, understanding, and appreciation of the sweet-science, than the average member of this stinking board.

I humbly disagree. I agree that the fight ****** and it was boring as Hell to watch but it takes two to fight. I am no Rigondeaux apologist. Even though I had him winning the fight.

However, I tend to agree that he could have made the fight more crowd pleasing by throwing more punches and by moving a lot less but Casimero looked very amateurish as well by rushing in and throwing wild punches without so much as cutting off the ring against a guy with 47 year old legs.

I believe that both Inoue and Donaire KOs John Riel Casimero if they just so happen to fight him. Casimero is just average at best.

I have 2 TV’s in the basement. Had a few friends over. By the 4th round we were all paying more attention to the moloney/Franco fight than the Rigo/ casimero fight.

I ended up putting that fight on the surround sound and muting rigo/casimero.

I kept telling the fellas that the Rigo/ casemiro fight would be the better fight because I expected the Rigo that fought Solis to show up.

boy was I wrong.
