Froch/Groves II HBO afternoon show draws 700k AVG, 830k Peak

That's pretty good, I bet that Froch Chavez PPV would do well coming off the back of that.

It was on at 5 in the afternoon dweebs.

Whatever you say tool, spin it how you want 700k isn't a good # especially for HBO considering it was a hyped up rematch with Nonito fighting before.

It is a good number for the timeslot.

Shame HBO coverage was pretty poor by not being at the fight.

I usually enjoy their commentary but was disappointed with it this time.

Their coverage was awful. Instead of post fight interviews we had to hear Kellerman cream his pants talking about Ward.

830k peak and it's two foreign fighters fighting overseas in the middle of the day. As to Nonito, if you read the link you'll see he only did 430k.

It is a good number for the timeslot.

Too much for some to grasp it seems.

Nah man, its regular HBO.

Put it this way, it was during the afternoon and did same numbers as Stevenson did on Showtime.

Its good numbers considering it was in the afternoon and two guys virtually unknown to the American/HBO public.

I'm not much a carer about numbers, but that is funny.

Stop embarrassing yourself.

[Ringlife]

Not bad for being an afternoon fight here in the States.

Those aren't very good #s for HBO. People can spin it all they want

So that's a flop right?? since Stevenson did those same numbers and it was calle a flop

Some of you really need to think before posting. It was two Europeans virtually unknown to the American public and it was in the afternoon time. And STILL did same numbers as Stevenson.
