The only replay ratings that are included are PPV replays. Primetime replays of afternoon cards or morning-after replays of primetime cards are not included.

These are averages across the whole event, right?

[R_Walken]

HBO viewership took a hit in 2016

4 fights avg over a million

It's crazy Gennady /Wade was the highest but was probably the biggest POS main event all year

[al-Xander]

Showtime really needs some drastic changes. Their ratings are abysmal. Replace Espinoza for one.

[A.K]

Where is Pbc

[North Star]

Things should turn up better in 2017 for HBO from what I heard. Apparently, their budget issues in 2016 were a snapshot of things going on with Time Warner, but now that those things have either settled or worked out, 2017 is supposed to be much better year for HBO boxing.
