That could have been brook fans not wanting to see that fight & turning over to C5 to watch the fury fight, or the Klitchko fight which was on at 10. I didn't watch Proska, I watched Fury & recorded Proska. At 9pm when brook fought no Other big fight was on any Other channel, Fury started after brook finished. That's why Hearn had him on at 9 so it didn't clash with Fury or Klitschko.
Ah right so it could have been that after the Brook fight alot of Brook fans (casual fans tuned off?) and the polski's stayed tuned. Who knows we wont so dont be so arrogant in your responses unless you can provide the math! :good I didnt watch Proska.
My mates only a casual fan of boxing and he called me up to tell me he's gonna be watching the Brook fight. Surprised he'd even heard of Brook. Clearly being on Sky is helping these fools.
Didn't mean to be arrogant mate just it seemed pretty clear that Brook numbers were higher than Proksa, sorry if it came across that way :good
i'm sure most were unaware of him - but how many pubs had it on in the background? and then as the fight developed into such a brilliant scrap more and more people start watching it, until by the end most of the punters in the place are enthralled by ,ergo thousands of casuals now know who brook is
:tong no hater used to be a fan, his moaning whinging ass ***** like attitude changed my mind, followed him alittle through the ams through the olympics when he turned pro untill he blamed a top coach for his defeat, carry on blowing smoke up his ass :thumbsup
brook made three new fans in my living room on saturday night one of whom as no intrest in boxing:yep
I'd say he made quite a few new fans, none of my mates are into boxing and at least 4 or 5 of them watched it, sky and Hearn are promoting him well
I'm not butt hurt at all, I'm making fun of your idiocy, idiot. There's a little over 500,000 Poles in the UK, it's fair to estimate that around 150,000 are men and you're trying to imply that they had some sort of big effect on the viewing figures. You can carry on with your blind rant or lighten up a little.

Show 100 lads a picture of Amir khan & Carl Froch and ask them to name the person and you will see how much more popular Khan is! Khan & Haye are the only marquee names in this country. Plus Bute vs Froch wasn't exactly prime time.
Clearly Khan is much more well known, but Froch V Bute had a lot of publicity behind it and even with Khan's name I'm not sure of 1million +
