Very good numbers, especially considering it was on Showtime.

Honestly, it was a nice night of fights. The pre-lim fights were fun (even though the opponents were overmatched). The Imam-Maldanaldo fight was tons of fun. Cruz fight had some action. The main event lived up to the hype, even though Stiverne never let his hands go. I was so hyped for this fight and happy it delivered. Happy people watched it too. I truly hope HBO gives us more than two fights this weekend though for Rios/Alvarado. So far, boxing has been pretty enjoyable after a lackluster 2014.

Looks like if a Klitschko-Wilder fight ever does happen it will be a PPV event.

Super fight

I feel bad for new boxing fans they think Vlad vs Wilder would be a super fight. They never saw a prime Ali Liston Foreman Frazier Holmes Shavers Tyson They get excited that Wilder learned a jab Stiverne gets great ratings for being fat and in his best shape ever until he loses then was overtrained sad so sad

Wow, shocker! The one non-Haymon Showtime card actually brings in ratings...

ROFL at people still acting like Wilder isn't one of the most talented heavyweights -aestheticism and boxing behind a jab-wise we've seen in years Keep hating clowns...

I love seeing fighters use a game plan in a fight and stick to it. Luckily for Wilder, Stiverne never made him adjust during the fight.

Isn't Wilder a Haymon fighter?
