Crazy number for an entire show. I wonder what the fights did individually. The thing about HBO and Showtime is that they release ratings for individual fights (opening bell through the result being announced). ESPN, FOX, NBC, etc. provide the average rating for the entire telecast start to finish. This leads to inflated ratings for HBO and Showtime.

The premium cable networks often release weekly platform views for their content, but we haven't seen that for boxing in a long time. The content should really be assessed relative to the networks business model, but then that takes us into a whole new world of understanding the ratings lol just my initial reaction to your point, not debating
