Comments Thread For: Wilder's KO Of Breazeale Peaked At 990K Viewers For Showtime

[1hourRun]

Yeah, but that's in the middle of the day over there so they're actually good numbers. But Wilder is the Yank who can't even get the same amount of people watching him for free that AJ does at home on PPV making shlt tones of cash. Haha.

Now kiss my noodle.

Are you still here? Why dont you start your six month ban now and get it out the way? Cause you know Mexican Puppet and Regis Pro are owning you and Josh Taylor!

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!

DAZN is a growing app that continues to gather steam. Showtime isn't just starting out so they don't have any excuses.

But it is funny that they're paying Wilder much more money when his viewing numbers and tickets sales are down. Good, they deserve it. If they want to pretend Wilder is a star and lose money to a moron who is beyond delusional at this point then they have no one to blame but themselves. They created this Frankenstein monster and his out of control ego, so they can deal with it.

It was a first Rd KO. Would've went over a million had the fight went longer. Those are damn good numbers

Why, do people usually tune in when it's halfway through the fight?

That's smashing that is.

[Redd Foxx]

Decent. Could/should be better given that there was SO much hype around the KO. I think 1 million watched it live, and about 20 million saw the KO when it went viral after. I know people who don't even watch boxing who saw the KO. One guy even said, "Did you see Fury KO that dude?!"

I think Wilder has built up some hype around himself but it's not going to pay off in these small fights. The big 3 are really going to rely on each other in order to get the BIG numbers.

The viewing figures and ticket sales are down even on Showtime. You know, the place he always fights?

But he's growing in popularity. Haha. Only in your minds. Facts speak like they always do. Which is why people like you have egg on your faces. But you lot should be used to it by now.

Internet searches are a much better gauge of broad popularity/interest than viewership, especially on a premium cable network. Look at Google searches through Google Trends. As I documented above, Wilder this week is outperforming any boxer over the past four years in US searches. And he is at 12x what AJ has ever reached in the US.

Wilder is NOT the biggest boxing star in the world. He is behind Canelo, AJ and Pacquiao. But he is trending up. He's must see TV and the general sports audience is catching on.

Wilder going to kill Showtime. They aren't going to continue to pay money like that. They'll be saying goodbye to boxing.

Fight would've easily gone over a million if the fight lasted longer. But these idiots don't understand that.

Only in boxing can Wilder get more viewers than Canelo for around the same price but it's considered a failure.

Canelo is on an App that is still growing. If he was on Showtime for free, how many viewers would he get?

However, I do like witnessing the likes of you trying to polish a turd.

When do you bring the sprinkles out? Haha.

Just slap him on ignore, the kid is clearly an obsessive mentally disordered social reject

[Sid-Knee]

Wilder’s previous appearance on Showtime – an intriguing 10th-round knockout of Luis Ortiz – peaked at 1,200,000 viewers in March 2018. Wilder-Ortiz, which had much more time to build viewership, was watched by an average audience of 1,100,000.

Fight would've went over a million easily

Keep on using words like "Would've".

If you "Would've" had magic powers, you would've been able to fly or some shlt.

But you know people and their fantasies with their head in the sand.

[Robbie Barrett]

Thank God that we finally we have the real sources published. Obviously, you can't believe some of these envious and jealous trolls with an open and vested interest in discrediting and undermining Deontay Wilder's success.

Obviously you don't know the difference between "peak" and "average"
