    Why are Loma`s viewing figures so low?

    Joshua v Ruiz 562,000
    Whyte v Rivas 289,000
    Loma v Campbell 205,000

    You should be asking why more people wanted to watch AJ or Whyte.

    Because he is Ukrainian whose native language is not English and he can't express himself in it.

    This would be the most rational one and pretty subtle, if trolling at all.

    I felt pretty bad for the guy after reading some of his previous work.

    He's as thick as someone who tries to soak up water with a rock.

    I feel boxing fans should be concerned.

    Only 562,000 for AJ - AR?
    That's shocking are you sure you didn't forget a 1?

    Aj really lost his fame. His fight against Whyte was bigger I remember the numbers

    Loma is the best fighter in the world but it doesn`t look like he will evder be star, I think it`s tragic and I worry about the popularity of the sport on the whole compared to when figts were shown on free TV instead of PPV.

    Loma is not that exciting and doesn't speak English. Floyd was less exciting to watch than Loma but made millions. Speaking English and talking **** goes a long way if your style is not the most fan friendly. I don't recall anyone talking about Floyd's fights the next day like they had a blast watching it but the man made so much money.

    I'm a huge Loma fan, probably one of his biggest on the site. But this is par for the course, it doesn't shock me, and I don't really care. It is what it is. Big dumb HW's will always capture the public's imagination far more than 135 pounders and under who don't speak English.
