Canelo vs trout pulls 1.1 million Saturday night.

Which channel broadcasted the fight in Mexico? (assuming one of them did)

[MiscBrah]

Seriously. Comcast had some whack ass movie on the guide instead of the fight. I wasn't sure if they were gonna air the fight live on the west coast until 6:30pm when they showed the Mayweather All Access show.

Who the hell still has Comcast in 2013, do you guys still have AOL too? Stop living in the 90's...

A good number for Showtime doesn't mean a good number for Alvarez. People were actually talking about him being a massive draw, the numbers don't back it up.

Comcast is the largest cable provider in the USA. More subscribers than DIRECTV. They also have the fastest internet in my area at 50mbps.

40k sellout doesn't back it up??.. Lol some people are idiots on this board

[Mister Wolf]

He also drew 1,000 paying fans to home Depot, canelo drew 40,000, you really going to compare the 2?

All the networks care about are the ratings so yes i will compare. When showtime and hob buy fights to broadcast on their network do you think they give a flying flipping **** who shows up to watch it live.

Canelo the Future.

Had this fight been on HBO it would have done 3.3 mil easy

[R-NEAL]

How is showtime having far fewer subscribers an excuse? It's a Mother***ing fact!!! Jesus are you autistic?

Lol, not sure why you havw your panties in a wad, but if "less subscribers" is a legit reason, then he wouldn't have sold this fight on PPV either. He is gonna need Cotto in Sept to help him draw. Bottom line: This fight wouldn't have sold on PPV like people thought it would have.

Steve Kim "Showtime has far less subscribers then HBO". Didn't read that on the first page did you?
