    And Jacobs got, what, $1.6M?

    Has anyone ever gotten such a high payday for such low attendance and viewership?

      Head to Head with NCAA Football Season and MLB World Series Baseball also think Lebron James and the Lakers was also playing that night...

      when you're Naive a F#ck about the US Market and try to go against them you end up with ratings like that all the other promoters learned their lesson and go dark during this time of year for a reason

        Maybe, or alternatively, they recognised this was never going to be a massive fight and preferred to get Jacobs his strap asap and some time to rest before the real money is made in 2019?

        I suspect that's more likely than HBO and Hearn being unable to read a sports schedule?

          Conference rooms? I'm sure he fought in the Barclays and then another arena before fighting in the same conference room that's held lomachenko...will hold his fight against pedraza , aswell as kovalev and eermmm...Tyson fury in the past lol.

          Some conference room that.
          Barclays was less than half empty when he fought that's a problem when's he's from there

                horrible ratings by far the worst viewership of any of his HBO fights since he signed with them and Hearn. Also had terrible live gate with only 4,691 in attendance again by far the worst since he signed with Hearn. There is now some truth to Hearn not knowing shyt about promoting in the US. The Andrade fight had terrible attendance as well and half the people there including Mcgregor only showed up to see Katie Taylor they walked out before the main event or during Andrade fight.

                If Hearn can't land Jacobs the Canelo fight what the phuk has he really done for Jacobs his fights draw no attention and fans.

                  Well, it will come down to if he can land him the Canelo fight or not...And I think he will. The Andrade fight isn't happening unless it is for all the belts as both fighters have come out and said something to that extent. I'd bet that fight happens in May.
