NBC boxing peaks at a 3.1 rating, wins youth demographic

[croz]

according to NBC's twitter the overnights averaged a rating of 2.5 peaking at 3.1 and won the 18-40 demographic for the night. It was also the most watched sport event on the weekend.

I'm not sure what the rating point equals but UFC on FOX 14 pulled a 1.4 rating point and that was 2.5 million people. UFC on FOX won pulled 5.7 million with a 4.0 rating point. These are also only overnights so they will likely be higher when they are fully counted tomorrow.

This is just a guess but if that is indeed just the rating point and not the actual number in millions then the over nights are probably at 4-5 million. If that is the case the full count might be 6 million. But that's only if it matches up with the UFC ratings. I don't really know.

just for the record I don't know if that' the actual number or even if NBC is talking in rating points millions. If it is indeed in the 5 million viewer range it could be 6 million by tomorrow but we'll have to wait and see.

That is good ratings for the first event but the challenge is to make that number GROW the next event

[The Big Dunn]

Think that's a good start, especially opposite unc v duke.

[Public_Enemy]

That's good. Hopefully it continues to get better and better.

I was at a pub last night during the Broner fight and it wasn't on one tv. I think alot of people haven't caught on yet and the numbers will improve as the word gets out more. Thurman/Ghost was a really good fight so that should help.

Anything over 4 million is what they need
