This the thing, you have to have a name to get real numbers.

Bhops is a name but who he was fighting was not.

Paulie is a name and porter is the up and comer.

Murat isn't a name, Paulie and Zab are big names in NY.

Pretty much, plus PM-SP was expected to be the most competitive pre-fight. It wasn't ultimately, but it was the most exciting. The Hopkins and Quillin fights were

Most people thought Shumenov was better than Murat yet the ratings were lower. Just weird ratings that don't make a lot of sense, maybe the date, lack of promotion who knows.

No way they were going to put Hopkins on the undercard though, not after they invested in the LHW division.

I wouldn't find it outrageous the date had something to do with it

It could... also the Pac replay occupied almost 700k views and there was UFC that night along with playoffs... so numerous factors.

But, if people accept the playoffs hurting, then that same goes to Bradley/Pac one

im not gonna lie; i watched the replay more than the actual Hopkins fight...i was flipping back to the Hopkins fight in between rounds of the PAC fight

This reminds me.... May 24th is when their other LHW investment fights.... that also happens to be an HBO double header....where the whole card probably costs less than what Stevenson is getting paid.

Plus side though is they will probably have it on Canadian PPV, so it won't be as bad...
