    Andre has great skills but he needs to learn how to "sell" himself (ala floyd), his style is absolutely boring, so no wonder why so little views (actually sad), and shame on the idiot poster who said that Bute has to earn his chance to fight Ward, SMH.

    The Bute/Ward is what boxing needs right now, **** the diva behavior, the "you need to earn the privilege to fight me" bull****........

        Wow, I just checked. Apparently that fight had 709,000 viewers. That's surprising.

          I don't think it's that surprising at all. Rios is a fun fighter and even though he's not a technical boxer he always gives fun fights. Ward on the other hand is a great boxer but very boring, he clinches a lot and has almost no fan base. I still think that a fight like Bute - Froch would have more views than Bute - Ward because Froch has many fans in England and I think that he may even have more fans in USA than Ward.

              Wanna know why it was a complete bust? It wasn't live on the west coast. I SMH at Showtime sometimes, they reside in the Bay Area where Andre's biggest fanbase is and they can't even show the damn fight live.

                You're jocking a fake fighter like Canelo Galvarez...THAT is kinda sad.

                  Ward vs. Froch is likely to have over 2 million viewers in England. I have noticed boxing tv ratings becoming stagnant in America but picking up tremendously around the world fights in Mexico with Erik Morales, Jackie Nava, and Saul Canelo Alvarez draw about 35-40 million viewers and fights on German television draw massive numbers with the Klitschko's, Abraham, and Sturm. Fights in England with Khan, Haye(unfortunately), Groves vs. Degale, and Ward vs. Froch draw big numbers on English television and all these countries also have great attendance numbers. Andrew Golota and Tomasz Adamek drew amazing numbers on Polish television. Pacquiao draws the whole country when he fights and boxing shows draw great viewership on filipino television. Fights like Klitschko vs. Haye draw great numbers world wide with over an estimated 500 million viewers watched that fight Worldwide.

                    I live in LA and I saw it live on Showtime. I have direct tv though. Maybe it's just other providers.
