Jose Pedraza breathed new life into his career atop a card which provided ESPN with its best rating for a boxing telecast in nearly a month. The July 2 edition of Top Rank Boxing on ESPN averaged 350,000 viewers over the course of the five-fight, three-plus hour telecast according to Nielsen Media Research. Thursday's show reached a peak audience of 448,000 viewers, coming at the 10:45-11:00pm ET block which coincided with the heart of the 10-round main event.

It's a shame more people aren't running in but other than the Stevenson event, most of the cards have had competitive fights and some upsets. Alot of the fighters involved have been at early stages of their career but there haven't been all that many blowouts. Given the physical and economic constraints of the current environment, I think cards are good and look forward to every Tuesday and Thursday.

I don't like Arum and have been critical of Top Rank events in the past but I've seen much worse levels of competetion on both DAZN and PBC before.

I personally think the commentating is fine, but maybe they need to bring somebody in to ****e it up. Somebody really exciting.
