Having a strong co-fight helped. That Pascal fight was great too bad Gonzalez didn't get the W. Can't wait to see that kid again.
The co-fight wasnt strong at all. It was a "mismatch", "cherrypick" gone wrong but we as the fans benefitted. Stop acting like you knew but this is why i say dont judge the fights till they happen. And look from the horrible decision we may have a new player in the game (Gonzales)
I am a Kovalev fan and I definitely didn't think this was going to hit the mil mark. This fight was viwed more than some PBC fights which is crazy but great for Kovalev.

You are missing my point never said it was a strong fight on paper. I'm saying the first fight was great and generated a ton of buzz on twitter and online and I'm sure many people who didn't intend to watch the fight tuned in because of it and stayed on to see the Kovalev fight. I know for a fact I told a few buddies damn turn on HBO these cats are throwing bombs and I wouldn't of done that if not for how good the fight was. An action packed opening fight helped the main event.
