Great ratings like they always are for every broner fight..... Broner holds ratings records on showtime and spike tv.... So these are not good ratings they are great ratings.... Jon jones vs dc was on the same night and that did 1 million plus ppv also....

The problem with numbers on non PPV events is that they don't translate into "I would buy a Broner fight". He's an entertaining TV fighter....or at least was. It's hard to get excited about his last 2 fights.

Free tv didn't break a mil Broner your no Floyd see he would break that every time charging 60-100 dollars you are no elite draw fighter or person

I don't think you get what context means. It was a great figure for Showtime, esp on a night when the UFC had a super-stacked card running with several belts on the line. Now matter how you want to spin it, it was still a good number.

It was the biggest UFC card of the year. Al and Espinoza rolled the dice that Broner-Garcia could still do huge numbers, and they were right..

exactly what i was thinking. it was a damm free fight and it didnt even hit a mil, yet broner is a draw?

[WesternChamp]

Its not free like FOX or CBS, or even ESPN is. It's a premium channel that costs an extra $15 a month to have..

awful figures, haymon cant generate interest in these fights...

[WesternChamp]

and ufc spent millions on promoting that event ******.... expand your tiny brain a little....

millions on promoting? care to explain? so mikey/broner promotion only cost a penny? once again a free fight ob tv didnt crack a mil.

you're entitled to your own opinion, as for me, i still think a free fight on tv not cracking a mil is not a good sign. that tells you where boxing is at.
