Why is a title fight between two of the best featherweights in the world an undercard fight to a mismatch between GGG and Rubio?
It would make sense to me if GGG was a superstar, but his last fight (which had a massive promotion even being advertised on local sports radio in my city) drew an embarrassing 758K viewers on HBO, which was HBO's lowest rated card of the entire year. This is despite his promoter proclaiming to Boxing Scene that the fight was going to be the highest rated card on HBO the entire year.
