Damn, midnight infomercials have higher ratings.

Green K for the laugh off the day!!

They were also competing with:

UM vs Louisville
Heat vs Celtics
UFC

On top of neither guy being "known" for the most part.

Exactly and doesn't take into account people who watched replays or ******ed in on Showtime's app later

Do come along young man, Ufc fans are not boxing fans. Most Ufc fans are silver spoon subburnanites too scared to go into the inner cities. However I will concede that Ufc does have its fair share of trailer park fans too if I’m honest.
Rest assured that the average boxing fan doesn’t know who the hell is fighting on Ufc this weekend. Boxing fans arnt hipster millennials

The problem is boxing fans aren’t watching showtime

Even if you doubled the numbers the average wouldn’t hit 250k. There is always competition on the other channels.

Those numbers sound pretty bleak. Alot of boxing numbers seem down and I'm curious what other sports numbers are doing. I know for me, I haven't been watching much of anything but boxing and MMA. I normally watch more football, basketball and baseball.

Ennis is entertaining, but he's blasting through his competition. Lubin is usually entertaining but Gausha just doesn't move the needle for me. The Tug fight was decent but those two aren't very well known.

The Benavidez card a few weeks ago did a zero rating among men 18-34. Imagine how bad this card did if their overall numbers are even worse.

Sad to see so few viewers tuned in
