    usually you post stuff on point but this is reaching even for you

Like you mentioned Dr. Kewl Hair, if we wait on the SKY ratings in the UK ( yes they covered the fight ) Deontay must of done over a million views, WOW!!! King Deontay must be the 'A' side -- do you guys have the SKY numbers by the way?
      You forget to mention that was a day time fight in a time slot that never has a high viewership and you conveniently failed to add in the HBO views that night.

      Plus you forget to mention that Wilder Stiverne 1 had MORE THAN DOUBLE the viewership that this rematch had....

          Those are really good numbers since the UFC card was right across the street at the same time. Even I was trying to switch back and forth between the two.

              OK, lets use your logic then : if A.J fought Wladimir in America it would affect their numbers in Europe considering the different timezones.

              Also two can play this game we have yet to learn the SKY numbers for Deontay vs. Stiverne II -- that also helps but its a little bit more complicated for Wilder because the Brits get our fights around 3.am but we at least can help their numbers because their mainevents come around 2-5 pm so its not really fair.

              So to make it even -- I said lets just look at the Showtime numbers and its an indictment against Joshua, when Deontay can pull the numbers that he and Klitshcko did with a old Bumane COMPETING with that cage fighting PPV.

                  Last time I checked those are two larger numbers than 670k based on simple math and facts.
                  That's great! That means more people will watch Rigo give Loma a schooling compared to heavyweight metrics! Thanks for the recap

                    You wont get reliable numbers tbh, Sky doesnt release much, you can watch it on demand at any time, and fights normally get repeated for a couple of days on one of the Sky channels. No way of really gauging the interest

                      Good ratings for Showtime, but nothing to be proud of in the grand scheme of things.
