If true, then those numbers are horrendous and terrible. I wonder how does DAZN expect to stay in business with those kind of numbers?

To just to think that people were actually gloating how Wilder did just under one million views on a premium cable channel Showtime Championship boxing.

However, this is more than two hundred times worse. This card did worse than I expected.

Those who do that are overwhelmingly British with no understanding of the USA and where boxing sits as a sport within the current culture and zero understanding of the demographics of boxing fandom. Outside of that, they look to discredit wilder in every possible way in favour of Joshua....be it fight purse, record, unwillingness to be dictated to by Eddie Hearn or dazn, viewership, etc etc....they were trying to use every bit of possible ammo against him because Eddie Hearn told them too because Eddie Hearn is an absolute master at manipulating drunkard nationalistic casual British fans

Yes, that I know. It seems to me that DAZN is losing money with its boxing content. I am pretty sure that they are not in business to lose money but to make money. Many propagandists likes to boast about how Showtime is going to scrap its boxing content.

I just hope that they are prepared when DAZN scraps their boxing content as well because boxing is no longer a mainstream sport here anymore. It has been on a decline for the last 20 years in America. It's not a popular sport among the crossover and casual fan either.

Over 230k more people watched the FS1 card vs the Dazn card.

FS1 is in almost as many homes as Espn yet averages les than half the ratings espn fights do.

True but to be fair everyone knows what ESPN is.

Everyone knows what FS1 is too. MLB is on there so is college football etc. Plus they got like 980k for Plant vs Uzcategui. Not anything close to that number since then though fam. So that’s a weak excuse.

Why didn’t Motorcity Hobra announce these ratings or the gate for this fight?

The PBC aren't doing that much worse than Major Leauge Baseball.

Not to be outdone, MLB on FS1 scored its most watched regular season game of all time on Thursday, June 14, with the New York Yankees – Tampa Bay Rays drawing 980,000 viewers, up an incredible +83% over 2017’s Thursday night exclusive game average (535,000).

thats more than 300% better than Alexander Redkach. You’re right though. Not that much better

Yeah their highest ever rated game was the same as Plant vs Uzcategui. The MLB only average around 500k.
