Kovalev draws worst HBO rating ever: 355K

[bigdunny1]

Tape delay on a damn Monday and with guys like Dan rafael live tweeting the fight hours earlier. I didn't even bother watching by the time they aired it because it was old news.

I didn't watch. After I read that it was an uninspiring 12 round fight I passed on wasting the time watching... It's just too hard nowadays to not find out results of sports that air tape delayed

of course tape delay on a monday night was probably better than they anticipated.

Good numbers.

I saw that the fight was on a monday when I hit the schedule button like 2 weeks ago, I'm a hardcore boxing and I didn't even remembered it.

Very surprised when I saw that "Kovalev dominated" headline in the front page yesterday

Over all the boxing HBO has shown this is legit there worst viewed fight??? There have been some bs ass fights on HBO over the years so thats surprising to me if true, but ok.

And Monday Night Boxing ain't even a thing so not really surprising it did garbage numbers & I think this was a opponent that brought lil excitement for Kovalev or threat to him too so that didn't help either.

Well of course it did awful. Worst ever is pretty bad, but I hope nobody is panicking at this

[Mitchell Kane]

How much did HBO even pay for this?

[A.K]

it made a lot of money in russia tho

It was odd to do a 8 hour tape delay. HBO is lost.

So lost.

Why even bother doing this?
