Comments Thread For: Garcia-Broner Peaked at 937K Viewers, Averaged 881K on Showtime

Showtime gets big numbers (at least for Showtime) when Broner fights. Their 2 biggest fights of the year have been Broner-Garcia and Broner-Granados, by far.

Imagine how popular boxing would be if every single fighter acted a fool and ran their mouth like Broner.

LOL love em or hate em, can't deny he's a huge draw. Considering real Madrid Vs Barcelona was on (finished around the same time Broner-garcia fight started) and UFC 214 with a nice fight card themselves, these are huge numbers.

yeah but that was ppv a event. broner's shiiet was free. so mofos actually paid money for ufc instead of watching a free boxing match?

you ****** not everyone has showtime! showtime has 10 million fewer subs than hbo..... its not all black and white dummy.... what are you crying about ratings for anyway?

[aceventura]

one fight is free doe! doh!

thank god it was not ppv.... like that scam circus canelo vs chavez fraud jr...

[lolpz]

If Broner can use this positivity to actually focus and fight/train well for at least 3 fights he can actually still develop. I feel like we see the same exact Broner since 2012, just a different version in every fight. He needs to learn and actually improve so he can live up to the potential that anyone who really knows what they're watching knows he posseses.

Those great numbers for Showtime. They have been averaging under 500k as of late.

My Western friend, You're dummer than I thought from your previous post. Showtime is not free, you have to pay a monthly subscription. These are Huge numbers all things considered. Broner is a bonafide star.

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.
