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

well, with only +300 million Americans, how many are boxing fans, how many have HBO/Showtime?

now in my house, we many have only counted as 1 view, but believe me, we were packed in, 20-25 people watched both fights at my house

you must be Filipino

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.

I think Haymon took their venue for March, so then they were scrambling around for a date/venue. They got Verona and I don't remember when either was announced.... would have to check for that....but mostly spawned from Stub Hub center being taken the 28th of March

Oh so HBO/TR/Golden Boy made the decision to go on the same date? Thought it was the other way around.

That's what it looks like. Haymon/Jr had their date set long before Provo/Matts did. Then again, that as supposed to be March 28th

[bojangles1987]

Those are really good numbers.

[Skip Bayless]

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

[Dr Rumack]

The peak Showtime number is pretty good, the average isn't great.

Really good numbers for Matthysse-Provodnikov though. Obviously word was out.
