Rigo breaks GGG's HBO ratings record

[Hougigo]

First off, horrible place for Rigo to have it... Arum has said Miami in the past and i have no idea why he didn't go through with it.

Second, pretty obvious CFB wrecked both HBO and Showtime

Zab/Paulie got 100k more.

So true.Rigo's style is just plain awful. I like purists too but Rigo is impossible to watch. He has little/no entertainment value & no fanbase.

So much damn truth in this post. He has a sensitive fanbase (of 13 people in this forum and 21 around the world) though so watch out!

Yea, people that were actually there are confirming it. Pretenders like Golovkin are going around spreading bs.

There were less than 700 people there for the Rigo fight. There were over 3000 there for the battle of beasts,Kirkland vs Tapia.

Not far behind Showtimes

Dan Rafael @danrafaelespn 1m
By contrast, Showtime's viewership on Sat night: Lara-Trout 429k viewers, Bika-Dirrell 446k, Porter-Alexander 515k, Malignaggi-Judah 640k.

so if there was only one card instead o competing cards either prob goes over 1 mil

This doesn't surprise me. Look at who he was fighting, look at the weight class he fights in, etc. Plus, he only has 13 fights and this is his 2nd on HBO if i'm not mistaken. If he fights more often like 3G, I think we'll see an increase.

Maybe...that's assume the people watching either card would go over to the other one and not something else
