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

So much for declining numbers.

1.433M for Murray (also had afternoon + evening broadcast)
1.436M for Brook (afternoon + evening numbers)

Seems rocksolid and even a slight increase to the only comparable fight.

At the same time Quillin vs Jacobs, one of Showtimes biggest fights, did 267k.

Ratings don't mean shyt to some GGG fans...Who cares who is promoting, or which channel is on just get the fights signed...so many on here care about such trivial things...I don't care if fights are on HBO or Bounce, Top Rank or PBC or Roy Jones Jr Promotions , just fkn fight meaningful fights! What is funny is the delusional narratives on this site from people who mock the PPV #'s for Golovkin / Lemieux claiming that the low number of orders is due to GGG's lack of skills. The fact is top MW's are afraid to step into the ring with him. Looking forward to FS1 tonite!

Glad GGG and Choco numbers growing sad to say red headed chicken still the top draw Mexican fans huge in number and die hard fans so he divas it up gets all A side fights 154 guys at 180 and says he isn't a real middle they should bring back 15 rounds same day weigh ins. Seperate men from boys. You can stop a fight in 13-15 just as you can 1-12. No reason .

roman likely loses steam after this...
nobody watches the p4p number 1 guy to see his face turned into a mashed potato..

and in all honestly the are shorter than the ring ropes..by round 9 roman had less mustard on his shots than a ketchup and relish only hotdog.

nobody is going to keep watching little men..hbo will find it out soon

AMAZING numbers considering it was at 5PM ET. And they dont reflect how many people bought the PPV in the UK, plus the late night rebroadcast and next day replay. Gennady is the ONLY fighter who can pull these numbers DURING DAYTIME, hell FLOYDS LAST FIGHT did 400K and AT NIGHT lol. TBE's goodbye drawed 400k lol. Gennady is a bigger superstar and this shows it.

Fury last Dec drew over 1mil at this same time of day. Also these ratings are ACTUALLY lower then GGG fight last year which also aired daytime against Murray. Floyd drew 400k for PPV if it were aired live on HBO NOT PPV it would of done more viewers live then any fight GGG has ever had. Hell last year Canelo drew over 2mil viewers live on HBO. GGG couldn't even do more then 150K ppvs and has to fight in the UK as the B side for a reason. Because HBO won't give him another PPV.

Great numbers for daytime premium cable in a fight few thought would be competitive. GGG did way better in the daytime, on premium cable, than Jacobs did in primetime, on basic cable. Says a lot about GGG's star power.

brook probably has the same name value as dominic wade in the US

This is one of the worst circle jerk ggg hate threads I've seen and there's been quite a few of them. Kudos guys lol

Horrible bunch of ****s. Even if I didn't like GGG, I would pretend to just to annoy these arseholes.
