This was two good fights for the night, boxing need more of those

It was a good fight by two decent welterweights contending for the number 1 position in their division so its good to know the viewers had a decent fight to watch..

good to see as well my picking off thurman to edge porter came true.

[Teetotaler]

Good numbers. And the official numbers should be higher. Whens the next big free fight?

While boxing obviously fell off, you're talking about the greatest sportsman of all time fighting in a time without cable TV, no internet, no streaming, no DVR, etc. People actually watched TV back then, it's a different world in 2016.

I know. I wasn't alive back then. I'm just to envision a world with 70 million people watching a fight.

good so far when pbc has placed their best against their best the fans havent responded. if we want more of last night type of matchups fans need to tune in and quit with the bs anti pbc propaganda. heyman is working with everyone now theres literally no reason for the hate besides boxing writers who are mad they cant get credentialed and are on gbp payroll

That was an AWESOME ACTION packed fight!!!

Uncle Al needs to give us MORE!!!

This is going to be one HECK of a year!!!

Postol vs. Crawford

P4P #1. Ward vs. Kov.

Just wish that Crawford Postol wasn't PPV.

I don't really care about the ratings. I know a good fight when I see one. Top fighters fighting each other is just different even before the fight starts. You can feel it. You can see it in the audience.

I just don't understand why they can't make more of these and the over-protective nature of it. Broner vs Matthysse was never made, for instance. Why? Yet look at Porter who lost twice now and I'm absolutely sure he'll still can be part of another entertaining fight such as last night's.

This is a great thing. I hope this motivates PBC to make more great fights like this.

Two young stars going at it in their primes drew a lot of eyes??? Amazing!

PBC, HBO, whoever...I don't care who makes the fights, just make good competitive fights.
