They even added the Sunday replay and still only got to 1.1 million lol.

The majority of that money was from $100 yearly subscriptions. They received $48 million that night, but in accounting terms, they're not doing so well. You'd expect a Canelo fight to do a lot better than that.

“Accounting terms.” “...expect Canelo... to do a lot better...”

How much is DAZN’s entire revenue for May? Oh wait, we’re still in May. Derp derp derp

Wilder is becoming must see tv, he’s gotten the casuals attention a bit with that destruction of Breazeale!

Heck, my coworkers who don’t like boxing said that KO was unreal and savage and that they want to start watching Wilder!

They need to continue building off that, I would market Wilder’s power and brutality in the ring everywhere!

Put him on Mortal Kombat as a free DLC with that Shredder like outfit and a special finish move with the right hand!

Have him sponsored by NyQuil or mattress companies or even bedtime story books!

The iron to strike is now!

Wow that is exactly the same LDBC speech from the Orti fight, "next time the numbers will be good", well maybe they will be but he's still a B side and those gate numbers at a 1/3 price are awful before we account for all the free tickets ...

You guys claim he has fought the best for 40 fights so how come no one is supporting him then .. one must be a lie.

But, but so many people LOVE him...laughable

The fight was only 2 minutes! Not much to tune into. I think those numbers are pretty good considering ....

Plus 9 million watching it on illegal streams or social media replays

Live numbers dont matter as much if the fight instantly goes viral thereafter... Showtime on FB had 2.5mill views over night.

Showtime's YouTube had 1.5mill... CBS Sports YouTube has 1mill.

Someone posted a screenshot of a publication that had 25mill views..

What a load of bollocks. I'm sorry lads but live viewers are what matter because if people aren't prepared to watch him on regular showtime then they certainly aren't going to want to pay to watch him live on PPV.

His fight with Fury went viral and look how well that's boosted his live viewer profile.

showtime is a subscription based network. they don't sell ads based on their ratings. the KO went viral and wilder's star grew. doesn't matter what the ratings were, they're ecstatic right now.

This forum has gone to complete sh#t most of you are not boxing fans at all

Fans don't root against their own sport they calm to love. Boxing has its issues across the board and reading this forum you see exactly why this sport continues to fall behind MMA and other sports

Strong Numbers for Showtime, I'm sure they're extremely happy with their "Little Ratings" given that their #1 Original Programming don't even peak that high.

I Swear some of you was just praising 600K Views for Canelo vs Jacobs in the US alone which was suppose to be a BIG FIGHT! You also had Some Wilder fans saying 600K wasn't good so you're all a Bunch of WEIRDOS! Lets see what AJ vs Ruiz numbers look like here in a couple of weeks if they even release them. Remember the standard you have set and be Men enough to not double back off of those standards after you laughed at 900+K views Peak

Mayweather and Pacquiao ERA has created some of the dumbest fans this sport has ever seen and I'm not even joking!
