    Fury would tell you he's as Irish as Matt Macklin& just slightly less than Tony Cascarino

    I don't think that it's a problem seeing as he's only fought twice out of England.

    I didn't know that one, i'd of thought Khan v Maidana would of been Khan's highest viewing figure's in America after the build up and stories leading upto the fight

    Malignaggi was a New Yorker with a little bit of a fanbase and he is a name because of his trash talk and some fights (Cotto and Hatton). Maidana wasn't a big name in America despite his style and Ortiz win.

    Don't know the ratings but Oscar was a big name and ratings even 3 years back were a lot better. The HBO ratings have been deteriorating year by year.

    Here is an article that you might find interesting on HBO ratings:

    Might be a lot to read but very interesting as to where boxing on HBO is headed
