I’m glad they don’t air Crawford & Loma’s fights on ESPN+ anymore at least. That app has nothing at all that I want to watch on it.

Considering there was no other sports on, and it was on espn, the sports channel, I would hope it did good. Also, some credit to Teofima and the Mexican cat. They kept the channel from changing. Always good to see solid ratings for boxing.

Loma is one big fight away from super stardom.

Pedraza make good numbers he is a good fighter!

Some context: The fight aired right after the Heisman Trophy ceremony. That definitely gave it a huge boost.

On any other day, I think the fight probably does 800-900K.

The lead in shows make a big difference. Crawford's last fight followed a big college football game. Loma's last 2 December fights have followed the Heisman Trophy ceremony. The Maurice Hooker fight did good ratings and it started at midnight. It followed a big college football game. Spence big rating came after a US olympic basketball game. Boxing can get good ratings if it's following a highly rated game or TV show

Keep boxing on Basic cable (ESPN) and Regular tv (FOX)

But that's a great way to promote boxing!
