Comments Thread For: Thurman-Lopez FOX Tripleheader Peaked At 2,765,000 Viewers

Keeping in mind that it was going up against nba and nhl, those are not bad numbers at all and the trend is increasing viewership in the ratings. With two successful ppv’s, PBC is starting well with their new contracts. It appears they are outperforming what the Ufc was doing late in its contract with FOX. It really helps boxing to be on free tv and have a network putting its promotional assets behind it. Let’s be honest too, this was not a compelling matchup on paper, it wasn’t a sexy fight for the casuals....it turned out to be because Thurman was rusty and riverside rocky was dogged and always loses well. Haymon should definitely remember not to put all the sexy fights on showtime and ppv though, throw the casuals a bone now and then and get some top dog wars on FOX. I want to see the viewership up to 3-4m

Actually, they settled because Haymons people asked the court to get Arum to open his books concerning Pac. Because there are loop holes in Pacs contract that allowed. Haymon to act as promoter/manager..which Arum accused Haymon of doing. I don't disagree with your statement though. But Haymon is still winning with deals with Fox and Showtime and his new ITV deal in the UK.

i wouldn’t say Haymon isnwinjing and Top Rank is losing. I would say they both are winning. Both have great deals. Top rank has a stable half the size and has 30 espn and espn+ dates while PBC has to keep over twice the size of a roster happy with only 22 Sho/Fox dates and another 12 smaller budget FS1 cards.

Overall both are doing just fine

PBC is killing shyt. Stop hating dog. Back to back weeks with great numbers. Have a lot of great fights coming the next few months and Wilder vs Fury 2 about to be announced soon.

All that crying and hating won't stop shyt. Numbers don't lie. Get a tissue homie your moist over there

whos complaining? Lol. And who said Thurman didn’t do a good number? I would stop way short of calling Pac-Broner “great numbers” tho. They did a solid number. We had manu NSB experts saying it would do over 500k and some even saying 800k which was funny.

Showing some comparison isn’t hating at all.

You're hating bruh! To try and even bring up other numbers when Thurman/ Lopez did over 2 mil is hating.

Since you love Top Rank please tell me a fight that will do better than 400,000 PPV? I'll wait all day on that!

PBC is killing shyt like I said. Pac vs Broner last week. Thurman/Lopez.

Tank vs Mares will do great numbers. Spence vs Garcia Wilder vs Fury 2 not to mention Porter vs Ugas!

Now name better fights lined up from Top Rank that will do better numbsrs this year? Give props and stop hating.

You sound real moist right now

hey ho Tank vs Mares will do great numbers? Lol ok.

When Floyd did vs 400k buys vs Berto did u call those great numbers ? lol.

It’s not a great number. It’s solid. Nothing more. Nothing less. Stop sucking off PBC and try to be unbiased.

We don’t even have half the years fights lined up lol. And Thurman vs lopez was supposed to be a mismatch. Let’s not act like we thought it would be competitive when he fight was announced lol.

We should have a good one this week when Kovalev and Alvarez go st it on espn+.

Golden boy had a good card on DAZN last week too.

No need for all your hate brother. U should be a fan of boxing and not a promoter smh

PBC is alive and well! That's what's up! I remember when Haymon was purchasing on-air time, and now they're paying him to broadcast his fights on cable TV. Lol, boxing is winning!

I remember when a ton of "experts" and posters were kicking dirt on the grave of PBC after their on-air buys got boxing back on free TV but looked like a failed experiment. I am glad they are alive and well. Boxing is much healthier in 2019 than it has been in a while, and the free TV availability that started with the PBC is the reason why.

“But but but Eddie Hearn gone take over American boxing ‘doe’”......wasn’t too long ago when legions of lineup trolls were filling the Internet with that jazz

Shut your f@ggot bytch ass up pussie for one. Floyd vs Berto was cool the key component is Floyd who does major numbers. But 400k with any other fighter is super good and your f@ggot ass knows that.


I ASK AGAIN. NAME A FIGHT ON TOP RANK THAT WILL DO 400K PPV OR Better???? You can't shut the fuuck up.

Yeah Mares vs Tank will do great numbers bytch. You said WE as in Top Rank doesn't have the line up yet? That's a problem then f@ggot.

I gave you about 5 solid fights from PBC. Stop bringing up numbers trying to hate when Top rank isn't doing shyt so far.

And if you bring up numbers PBC is killing top rank. You say I'm bias but you said WE as if you a part owner of top rank.

Aye f@ggot! Until you can answer this question I bodied your hoe ass! WHO ON TOP RANK CAN DO OVER 400K PPV OR MORE right now??

Checkmate f@ggot

[NC Uppercut]

Wow. Great stuff for boxing!! Even though a lot of peeps hate on Keef...he keeps the viewers coming. Pac vs Thurman should do very good numbers!

Just last month I had to explain to some people why the PBC wasn't a failed experiment.
