Comments Thread For: Spence-Bundu Bout Draws PBC Network-Record 6 Million Viewers

Those numbers aren't acceptable. It should have done at least 70 million since it was on free TV!

[HanzGruber]

That's pretty crazy. Dat time slot doe

[R_Walken]

Sh.it those are crazy #s

great placement by PBC to have it sandwiched in that time slot.

Good fight and great KO hopefully IT gets some casuals attention

[Inoue Body Shot]

WOW those are GREAT numbers and for the right fighter.

[Real King Kong]

Spence had a class post fight interview too...between that and the ko, people will want to see him again.

[SouthPawHitman]

Uncle Al continuing to do great things for the sport. I actually read they might've done a lot more than 6 million.

[Kigali]

That's most likely why it did so well. Smart move by PBC.

If this was Rocnation they would had Ward fighting during the closing ceremonies.

...or HBO...it would have been on PPV in front 40K viewers.

Not hard to believe. It was sandwiched in between the U.S. Mens olympic basketball gold medal game and the Olympic closing ceremony.

That has to be it. Tons of people left over after the gold medal game. Still, wow! That's terrific. That's the biggest audience yet.

And Spence gave that audience a treat, which is also great news. Hopefully a good number of this audience will come back next time Spence fights. Keep him on free TV, Al! Take advantage of this!

[Larry the boss]

Damn!!!!!!!!!!!
