The 550k viewers drawn by Rigo-Agbeko is among the lowest viewerships in HBO's Boxing After Dark history. #boxing

Dang.... I mean... it might've been nobody was interested... but IMO, CFB ruled Saturday with the Conference championship games

Damn. So all of the cards got bad ratings. This is a football country though.

You had national championship implications on the line with Ohio State and Florida State playing at the same time.

Positive news for Rigo... kind of.

Positive news for Rigo... kind of.

Meh...I could care less.

I watched both football games and both cards. Fun night of sports. Even though I wanted to see Ohio St. vs. Florida St. lol

Yea College Football definitely played a major factor on Saturday. Do you remember the Maidana/Lopez numbers? I could've sworn they were around 600,000 maybe 700,000.

Hey Hoverhand.... I already made a thread for this

[The Problem Child]

I had talked about this last week, these cards were full of boring fighters. No surprise both got bad ratings. We were talking about this on the forum last week calling it the get your pillow cards, people do not want to see this.
