Comments Thread For: Loeffler Very Pleased With Ratings For Golovkin, Chocolatito

[basic_bounty]

This is why we love GGG:

Told by TomLoeffler1 that gggBoxing does not want to vacate his WBA belt and "is committed to fighting DanielJacobsTKO."

GGG says he wants all the belts and is doing what he says. Doesn't matter who he fights. Once GGG knocks Jacobs out, Saunders is next so don't go to far and don't lose that belt BJS.

Great news for HBO & GGG! We've now had "great fights" which were NOT PPVs! We've seen Vargas vs. Salido, Thurman vs. Porter, LSC vs. Frampton, and now GGG vs. Brook, just to mention a few! Spence Jr. vs. Bundu has the most viewership this year, and it also was NOT PPV! We need to support this movement, and the way to do this is to NOT PAY for bull**** PPVs! We obviously "stuck to our guns" for Crawford vs. Postol! Now it's time to send a message to GBP. If you want GGG vs. Canelo, then I suggest you don't purchase Canelo vs. Smith! I know that's tough for people in Mexico (and Mexican-Americans) and in the UK! However, you will never get what you really want if you're willing to pay $70 for what you did NOT want to see! THINK!

Let me get this ****ing straight you ignorant ****s, GGG 5 round TKO if a top WW who is as big as GGG is getting exposed. What the **** is Brand, who an unranked SMW who is no where near as big as Ward, going 12 rounds. Good god.

And these ****ers yesterday thought GGG popularity was decreasing because they hate him so much they can't see through their own hate.

So let's get this straight, GGG doing a combined 1,436,000 viewers on HBO on a ****ing Saturday afternoon is bad ok, well it's the highest rated event in 2016--where you at Ward fans. You got that.

And it's the highest rated HBO international boxing telecast in many years.

How does that compare to Ward, we don't know, dude wouldn't go to the UK to fight anyone. He doesn't much leave California.

Wait, and it was viewed live on TV Azteca by 1,560,000 viewers in Mexico on Saturday afternoon.

Plus in 100 other countries.

You ****ing haters talk a good game, but saying GGG is a world wide star is ****ing asinine.

imagine how many views will canelo get if they show his fight twice on regular hbo?? i mean only his khan replay did over 1 mill, his last fight on regular hbo did over 2.2mill without adding the replay numbers, and his fights in mexico average ratings about 20 points of rating, you can make the numbers look good but at the end of the day ggg-brook(biggest name on gggs resume) did less than ggg-murray, and after all the time and money invested by hbo on ggg they couldnt increase the viewers, at 35 yo thats not a good sign...

I don't have much knowledge with which to judge GGG and RG's TV Azteca numbers but they seem pretty high.

I hate you Lil' G

the canelo-khan mismatch had 15 million viewers , so 1.5 mill isnt good at all but they make it sound like it is... women boxing has higher ratings than that and is not even close...

Adding replay ratings to make the live ratings which are actually down from his Murray fight and now throwing out Mexican ratings to try and take attention away from the HBO ratings but any digging into boxing ratings show just how weak those ggg ratings are. On a network that does 10-20mil ratings and only getting 1.5mil is horrible. You release that in a statement to US audiences that have no clue about Mexican ratings. Pathetic but what did you expect this chump said he was very pleased with 150k ppvs after he was on record saying he needed at least 200k ppvs to make a profit. No they weren't good ppv numbers that's why HBO refuses to give him another ppv lmao

So Ward vs Brand did better than Golovkin vs Brook.

no doubt ggg is turning into a global star its a shame his first ppv bombed so much. it does make u wonder why it bombed as bad as it did tho whether u believe the 80k or 160k or whatever the ppv bombed. maybe people just didnt buy into the lemiuex hype
