Sorry, but you set yourself up for that one. Said you can't refer to the highest viewership of the year as "not bad" and technically Crawford/Benavidez was the highest rated fight, not this one.

What was the viewership for that fight? I thought it was 1.6 million

This info says it metered at 1.6 for the event and 1.8 for the Crawford fight. That's all the info I've seen on it.

That's the rating, NOT the viewership. For example, Lomachenko for this fight I believe had a 1.2 rating.

According to Kevin Iole of Yahoo Sports, last weekend’s Terence Crawford vs. Jose Benavidez Jr. main event did the highest ratings of any combat sporting event this year. The fight wound up peaking at 2.708 million viewers — well above UFC’s Emmet-Stephens card on FOX which did 2.038M, Proirier-Gaethje which topped out at 2.023M, and boxing’s Wilder-Ortiz card on Showtime that peaked at 1.81M.

It was a fun card. Espn have got to improve their pacing of the telecast in the future. Way too much filler in between fights.

That Lopez 1st round KO definitely didn't help. After that they were kind of doing anything they could to pass time lol.

That is not always possible. Fighters have a window of time to warm up properly. When you get these KO1s, the next fighters may only be beginning their warmup. Time has to elapse. It is the nature of the beast. They should air a couple prelim fights in between, but then it becomes about money. Fighters get purses based on televised vs non-televised.
