so HBO and ESPN hold 9 of the top 10... with wilder vs Ortiz being showtimes only appearance. The same fight that marks Wilders best opponent to date.

Beaten by Golovkin fighting a bum, and Jacobs fighting sulecki in a mandatory shot

But.. but... Hearns done nothing for jacobs.. Wilder is more known than golovkin.

No Surprise! Arum moving to ESPN is proving to be a GREAT MOVE for him and Top Rank thus far! Just annoying when they delay boxing for some other ****ty sport but overall it has a been a massive upgrade>HBO

ESPN is way too bias which takes away from the fight sometimes but as far as boxing that seems to be universal for the commentator to be bias to the guy the Network is invested in

It's disgusting how biased they are.

Mr. I can get you $50 million a/k/a Mr. still ducking Joshua - just had less views for his fight than a White boy from Eastern Europe whose name no one can hardly pronounce.

So how many people actually watched the fight? It seems to be lower than his last fight unless they are using a different ratings system.

Lomachenko vs. Rigondeaux Generates Big Rating For ESPN

https://www.boxingscene.com/lomachenko-vs-rigondeaux-generates-big-rating-espn--123295

Last night’s fight between Vasiliy Lomachenko (10-1-0, 7 KO) vs. Guillermo Rigondeaux (17-1-0, 11 KO) delivered big on ratings, making it the second highest-rated boxing telecast on cable in 2017, according to Nielsen overnight ratings. It was an electric, full house at the Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City that watched two of the top ten pound-for-pound fighters in the world, both two-time Olympic gold medal winners, battle it out for the WBO Junior Lightweight World Title. Lomachenko wowed with a sixth-round TKO.

Daniel Jacobs vs. Maciej Sulecki averaged 811,000

Wilder-Ortiz Showtime's Highest-Rated Fight average viewership of 1.24 million

Wilder-Ortiz Showtime's Highest-Rated Fight Since Wilder-Stiverne

https://www.boxingscene.com/wilder-ortiz-showtime-highest-rated-fight-wilder-stiverne--125952

Not since Deontay Wilder won the WBC heavyweight title from Bermane Stiverne have as many viewers watched a boxing match on Showtime as they did Saturday night. According to ratings released Tuesday by Nielsen Media Research, Wilder’s compelling comeback victory over Luis Ortiz drew a peak audience of 1.2 million viewers and averaged 1.1 viewers. That was Showtime’s largest viewership since Wilder’s unanimous-decision defeat of Stiverne attracted a peak audience of 1.34 million viewers and an average viewership of 1.24 million in January 2015.

So if Wilder-Ortiz had 400K more viewers than Jacobs-Sulecki how did it get a lower rating?
