Comments Thread For: Hurd-Lara Drew Higher Ratings for Showtime Than Joshua-Parker

[Shonoluv]

Outside of true boxing fans who knew about Luis Ortiz. It's just that it's a competitive fight and word got around. AJ's numbers should have been better, since they were not we know he's just milking his home town fans and wants nothing to do with Wilder

[redmish]

uk fans gettin all up in their feelings again with this one lmao

I don't agree. I'm English and I'm pleased. I want the sport to do well in America and the rest of the world. The sport is more important than any individual fighter.

I don’t get why people are saying AJ looked ‘terrible’ in his last fights. He almost won every round in both fights against decent opposition. Lennox Lewis had some absolute stinkers in his career and he’s an all time great.

The numbers are also not surprising. If wilder fought Parker in Vegas, no many in U.K. would watch it even with a prime time replay

It's not about winning rounds. Lewis was heavily criticized during his entire career, even more so than AJ. The standards are so high for the top dogs, just winning rounds isn't enough.

We are not entertained!

They replayed AJ-Parker during primetime on the same day, and still it drew less average and peak ratings

Got'em on that one dude lol

[AdonisCreed]

I wonder how long it will take Lara to work his way back in line for a title shot. Also maybe this is good for him and he'll be more active instead of fighting once a year lol

was just boring but he did some things well

This is why wilder joshua would make a lot more money in the states.

Vegas = more livegate $

American ppv = 10x more $ than U.K ppv and you can’t have a american ppv airing in the noon/afternoon

[chrisJS]

How much are his opponents getting?

Klit and Joshua got over $10m and Pulev was going to get $5m but got injured.

Good purses.

I would have agreed with you but the reason why you don't see why he looked terrible is because you have to take a step back from the elephant to get an idea of the whole picture.

Now AJ is a big dude (similar to an elephant) so, if u take his coc out of ur mouth and take a few steps back then you'll see what everyone else sees.

His manhood is endless. I refuse to take it all out of my mouth or he might put it somewhere else
