    I was expecting more with Roman Gonzalez as the co feature, and free HBO that week, plus Canelo Khan 24/7 (how much of a push can you get?). To be fair though he was competing with the UFC and NBA like Spence was but people didn't want to hear that when I said it about him, and it was his 1st main event.

      Golovkin-Wade did 1.089M. Jake Donovan should source his "free-view" numbers as other sites that report Nielsen ratings don't seem to have this information.

          Solid numbers, but Canelo still is more a draw than GGG. 2.146 mil last May.

          it's non-debatable who is the superstar between the two.

          Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez enjoyed a triumphant return to HBO in every conceivable way. The 24-year old former 154 lb. titlist registered what presently serves as the leading contender for Knockout of the Year after flattening James Kirkland in the third round of their May 9 meet at Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas. The bout was Alvarez' first fight back on HBO following a nearly three-year hiatus. Absence truly made the heart grow fonder among HBO subscribers, as the live main event drew a staggering 2.146 million viewers, peaking at just under 2.3 million viewers, according to Nielsen Media Research. With the moster ratings pull, Alvarez-Kirkland becomes the most-watched cable fight of 2015, a mark established just two weeks ago with HBO's April 25 event topped by Wladimir Klitschko's 12-round win over Bryant Jennings. The May 9 event is also the best performing boxing event on cable TV since June '06, when an exclusive rebroadcast of Bernard Hopkins' career-resurrecting win over Antonio Tarver drew more than 2.4 million viewers. The Hopkins-Tarver replay accompanied a live broadcast of Jermain Taylor and Winky Wright fighting to a draw in their middleweight championship bout in Memphis.

            Is Jake Donovan adding Sunday morning replay numbers to the original live telecast to get to his 1.3M figure?

                  The HBO series scored a 4.0 same-day rating in adults 18-49 and 7.94 million viewers for its premiere.


                  The full Sunday cable ratings chart will be posted later in the day.

                    That's your opinion, but we're talking about viewing numbers.
