Deontay Wilder vs. Bermane Stiverne did 674K on Showtime

Free? no -- subscription to Showtime is required, so now you are going to pretend that that fight league that made MCTAPPER a superstar, big enough to break a PPV record is not popular over here and a considerable factor that night? ok.

Ok, you've convinced me .. even when he isn't there, McTapper is still a bigger draw than Wilder in the USA.

Lets face it, he could out sell Joshua fighting Paulie Malignaggi in Wembley. I don't know what the big deal is for a quitter.

Good ratings for Showtime on top of going up again College Football and a STACKED UFC PPV Card but also drew a excellent live crowed despite the UFC having an event at MSG at the same time. Wilder also got a Viral Moment that he needed which could lead to bigger Ratings his next fight because people will tune in hoping to see another vicious KO

Showtime seems to be happy with their Ratings, if they wasn't then they wouldn't be spending as much money into boxing and would have cutbacks like HBO

Not quite--In his hometown (Birmingham AL) he puts 12K asses in seats at an arena that has a 15K capacity.

Sorry, but that is an awful analogy to make.

pride in ones country is a bad analogy?
