Wlad vs Wach does good ratings in ESPN UK debut

[croz]

The fight came second for the week with 75k viewers. The Europa league came first with 100k viewers.

This is the same channel the UFC is shown on in the UK so it's probably worth mentioning their event on the same day came fourth with 40k viewers.

Is that good or bad?

Good.

Of course, it's a smaller percentage in Russia than in Ukraine, where virtually everybody watches the Klitschkos' fights.

Wladimir vs. Povetkin will break records in Russia though.
