Less than 700K viewers for Lemiuex - Stevens on HBO?

It was an ESPN fight at best. A top 10 guy vs a non top 10 guy with some minor titles on the line. That's the type of fight PBC would get ragged on for putting on CBS for free.

Lemiuex vs Stevens are the types of fights HBO WCB will put on. Decent-good will be grouped together and put on PPV. I remember when decent/good matches were on WCB, and only some good/great one's were on PPV.

BAD not WCB. They reserve those for stars vs bums lol.

most probably he meant on Canadian TV

I was talking about how gay this place got for him after the KO

[SplitSecond]

Honestly, who really cares? They wouldn't have gotten paid any more money to fight on PBC, not at their level. Thurman and Garcia were two of the top welters and they only got $2M each. That should have been a big PPV event had they been managed properly by Haymon. Big fail and the fight was a flop.

So this is what the newby boxing fans think.

Not surprised. Why would it do well?

[Mitchell Kane]

Wouldn't be surprised, it wasn't a good card on paper for HBO...a couple Golovkin leftovers.

The undercard fight wasn't good and went the distance, the main event was good, but ended early.

It was a ****ing hbo ppv in canada... $54.95. I had to stream it.

[JJRod]

Shame. Wish more fans would have tuned in to see the KO.

There's really no excuse. The numbers sucked

[snoopymiller]

It got 606k viewers.

That means the entire card averaged about 550k... WOAH that's pretty pathetic.

New to a boxing forum doesn't mean new to boxing. But thanks for your input and professional analysis. Very useful.
