Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Martirosyan Cable's Most-Watched Boxing Match in 2018

[HeadShots]

On a network with far fewer subs. These numbers are within range of previous GGG HBO Championship boxing fights so the lack of promotion time didnt hurt it.

you're an idiot. no promotion don't hurt ratings y'all!

#1 boxing viewership on TV despite 0 promotion.

impressive.

Meanwhile Canelo couldnt even pull 200k for his fight against Liam Smith lmfao. Golovkin is the A-side and Canelo will have to beg for the rematch.

Because of Mexico, Canelo is the A side! Every Canelo match could be PPV!!

ya Floyd would draw the same on free TV after all his PPV fights right.



you're an idiot. no promotion don't hurt fights y'all!

Floyd could announce a fight tomorrow and fight Saturday & 5 million viewers.

You must be a Joshua fan. Only a Joshua fan would try to diminish Wilder for doing better numbers than GGG

U got that right. People aren’t subscribing to watch De Braun wilder. They would rather just miss his fight or an illegal stream than subscribe to showtime. He ain’t moving the needle enough for people to subscribe to support him and watch his fights.

Floyd could announce a fight tomorrow and get a high view like GGG. However, if he had 3 months to promote the event, it wouldn't change the viewership?


are you mentally ill?



what are you arguing here? GGG did better numbers than Wilder with a full promotion against a better more known opponent. This is a fact.

Your post is confusing lol What are you trying to articulate here?

I think you're misplaced if you're suggesting Showtime isn't getting more subscribers. They have the fastest growing streaming app in the premium category.

Good stuff. I never understood why people on here seem to not want certain fights to do well. Not real fans of the sport I guess.

The short time to promote hurt ticket sales not viewership. From the time it was announed that Canelo failed a drug test Loeffler said GGG was still fighting on the 5th. He changed the venue at the last minute. Everybody still knew he was fighting on HBO on the 5th.

that Deontay Wilder isn’t getting by people to subscribe to showtime. Their shouldn’t be a gap between them and hbo as hbo boxing fades away
