Decent for Showtime, Their #s seem to be on the upswing

It's crazy for Lara being such a no name nobody Lara/Vanes was the second most watched fight on Showtine this year

Lara is more known than any other 154lber including charlos, andrade and jrock. Mainly cause he fought ginger

Decent numbers ...what surprised me, & I was at the show, live attendance numbers, announced @ 9500 and something 4 a 15000 seat arena ...

I agree and flat-out more talented than others mentioned , not saying he could beat them all, IMO, large drawback is his lack of punching power...

I highly doubt even the pbc nuthuggers expected anything close to 1 mil. Should of had it on espn

I wish every good fight did a million viewers!!! That way there would be MORE great fights!!!

What is a pbc nuthuggers???

Agree, I was making a observation how some act like he's basically invisible and doesn't deserve any fights but he pulled in #s similar to Deontay & Cruz/Frampton so he's ibviously known among boxing fans

How was the atmosphere in the building?

Lara is Showtime's moneyman.

also his style. I really like it when he does it against high live fighters but when its against lower opp then hes just screwing himself over

What happened to showtime? They used to get close to 1M and over for most shows

People are getting rid of their cable, I think is one of the other reasons.
Also Mayweather. Whenever you'd order a May PPV, you get Showtime free for like 4 months. So that would be basically until his next fight.

I was surprised at the ovation Garcia got in NY, was it as hyped as it sounded on T.V.? I know T.V. can be deceiving...
