nvm, I guess it is 808,000

Garcia-Salka averaged 808k viewers on Sat #cardoftheyear, down 17% from Garcia***8217;s last Show fight vs Herrera (972k viewers) but that went 12.

Crazy numbers.

Good I bet everyone who saw that fight now knows that Garcia was fighting a cherry pick.

I think mannix is talking just danny fight while Dan is whole card. I am surprised by this #. I figured less than 500k would watch. Danny/salka did more than GGG/gaele, which is very surprising.

I didn't catch that at first. Jacobs/Fletcher was the most competitive match-up on paper and it received the fewest viewers. Hopefully Jacobs gets a tougher opponent next time. The fact that more people tuned in for the main event shows that fans will complain but still tune in. Fans can be convinced into watching just about anything, and it's been happening all year. Garcia/Peterson should happen ASAP so we can forget this card ever happened.

Garcia might be PPV material after all.

smh. showtime going to look at these numbers and continue selling more mismatches and more people will watch. disgusting. i'm glad i didn't contribute anything to those numbers.

anyone who actually watched that farce of a mismatch should feel dirty and ashamed to call themselves a boxing fan.

dirty and ashamed, meh, i've felt it before ... won't be the last time.

Great news for boxing fans! More mismatches coming our way.

GGG did 900k. Shows that fans are addicted to boxing. Tbh it was a quiet weekend of sport anyway. So I dont blame them.

No protest cause boxing fans are a buncha suckas. Stay tuned for more mismatches.
