Matthysse/Provo peaks at 1.38 Mil, Chavez/Fonfara Peaked 836k

[Hougigo]

Those are really good numbers.

So far they're the highest peak viewership on premium, they're not gonna touch the network shows.

chavez fight did good considering where they moved to and a split network card

Great numbers for boxing! PBC HBO SHOWTIME lets get it baby they can't stop us!

You talking about the Chavez fight?

no, both fights, believe me I recorded both of them, plus we caught the UFC fight before hand, saw Machida get beat, like I told everyone in the house he would

That's miserable.

why, dont you hold/host fight parties?

What's wrong with a fight party?

it was a birthday party, but then after I talked to some of the people there and told them how good of a fight Prov/Matt was going to be, they stuck around for it, they all loved it, I played that fight first, watch Chavez later with just a handful of people

you must be Filipino

Did my avatar give that away?

Haven't even brought out the big guns yet Canelo and Cotto!

puts boxing as a sport into perspective, 1.35m would be peanuts in soccer but in boxing its good numbers.

Those are good numbers because it was on a premium channel. Put soccer on HBO and you would be lucky to get numbers 10% of that.

Not sure why HBO and Showtime would go head to head like this. If you're gonna do the same date could you possibly make it so the channels don't show events at the same time? Have one channel start at 8pm and the other at 10pm? If they were smart they'd agree to things like this in the future. Everyone wins.

Competition is good for the sport. HBO/Showtime used to go head-to-head all the time and the fans benefited.

What was the number for Garcia vs Peterson?

What was the number for Garcia vs Peterson?

3.4 million, not sure if it is true

[Cuban Linx]

Might have had better numbers if they didn't try and compete with the HBO card.

lol in uk and around europe (not sure about usa) soccer is on premium channel and they get ridiculous viewership. in usa alone last weekend man utd vs chelsea game averaged 1.35m viewers on nbc and soccer isnt even popular in usa
