[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

ESPN televised a much more compelling main event Tuesday night, but viewership was only slightly higher than it was for its previous boxing broadcast on a weeknight. Nielsen Media Research revealed Wednesday that the network's three-hour, 31-minute telecast Tuesday night was watched by an average of 310,000 viewers. The peak audience of 390,000 tuned in toward the conclusion of the main event, Joshua Franco's upset of Andrew Moloney in their 12-round, 115-pound title fight at MGM Grand Conference Center in Las Vegas.

Yeah, I enjoyed it alot. The Moloney/Franco card was really good as was the Greer/Plania card. I don't need to see fighters on the P4P list, I just want some competitive fights.

Best post-covid night of boxing thus far. Sport is heating back up.

Top Rank's tv ratings continue to be in the toilet.

I don’t get it. We got a good main event but it nowhere near reached the numbers with the Stevenson-Caraballo fight. The irony

No live sports ans still nobody watches boxing. That's unfortunate because I really enjoyed the card.

Shakur is promoted better by Top Rank and was an Olympian so he get's more exposure.

Moloney brothers were signed recently and are from Australia so nobody knew who they were here in the US when it comes to main stream. I had seen Jason fight against Rodriguez and he put up a good fight never saw Andrew but was expected to win he was the Top Rank guy so they didn't really give Franco any promo during the build up.

about the same as that Plania-Greer card.

That's true about Shakur being heavily promoted by Top Rank. Can we say the same with Miguel Berchelt this Saturday given that a showdown with him and Oscar Valdez is imminent?
