Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Brook Did 843K Live Viewers; 833K For Chocolatito' Fight

[Cutthroat]

Not surprising, people recognize how overrated mr 97k is

[Motorcity Cobra]

Golovkin's last two shows on HBO, Monroe and Wade, did a 1.338M and 1.325M average. You have to go back to the Murray fight (which was also broadcast during the day), to find a time Golovkin went below 1M.

To act as if the time slot had nothing to do with the numbers in the Brook bout is really being ignorant.

That's why you have to combine the replay. A large chunk of his audience, likely that 500K that was missing, didn't get to watch the show during the day.

What did his last show in the same timeslot do?

Do you ever count the replay numbers? why would we start now?

What's funny about that? I've said that multiple times in the past, including for the Stevenson/Kovalev fight. Let your guy go on the other network, knock the head off that network's fighter and come back bigger. That grows your brand bigger than not taking the fight at all.

ya always talking **** about pbc/haymon etc....

now you want ggg to be in their pbc card to "increase exposure".

you must practice quite a bit to be this good at being ignorant.

First off, beating Ward does ZIP to increase his "star power". How does beating a guy who cant draw ants to a picnic outside of Oakland make someone a "star"? And what kind of moron would contractually obligate himself for a fight a year away against a lesser draw?

And as for Canelo, there NEVER was an offer at 155, 156, 157, or ANY weight dumbazz. You act as though he turned down a catchweight offer from Canelo, but there never was an offer to turn down.

GGG beating Ward does nothing for his career?

Brook was the "A" side in the UK PPV...

Source? What type of PPV system does the UK have where numbers are coming back in two days?

Hearn basically runs Sky boxing these days.

theres something called legacy? are you content with golovkin facing **** for the rest of his career? are you literally telling me that a win over ward does nothing for him? you see, all of you think that i am a demon but you just misunderstand. this is why me & frog head p*ssys like yourself will NEVER agree with this situation. you just said that A ward win does nothing for him? 1st. legacy, it cements it for golovkin. it would be his highest payed fight to date because people are not as dumb as u think. they like challenges and ward would be a challenge. so the money would be there. also it confirms everything that u guys were saying, golovkin would undoubtedly be great with such a win.

A ward win means nothing but A brook win means something?

have you guys lost your minds over golovkin? seriously, have u guys gone nuts?

"legacy" and "star power" are 2 entirely different things. The question was about star power, not legacy. Beating Ward does nothing for GGGs "star power", because Ward himself is not a "star". Of course it adds to his legacy, but that is not what the conversation was about.......

monroe & wade were fights that weren't promoted like brook & golovkin. actually they weren't promoted at all. brook and golovkin had major promotion from HBO. this was a massive event. so the time slots from that prospective doesn't matter. HBO actually put in heavy promotion for this fight & with that number it's a failure. i am still a little skeptical of the number because thats too low.

also i am not combining the numbers because chocalito himself brings huge crowds. who's to say most of that wasn't due to the fact of people tuning in and preparing to watch chocalito? thats why the live numbers are so so important and u guys don't get that for some reason. now the only point that can be made is if after the golovkin replay the numbers dropped for roman. but if they went up......likely that was people tuning in and preparing to see roman.


simple.

[bigjavi973]

its laughable.... Eastcoast just admitted that they need Al Haymon's pbc to increase lilgina's exposure
