    Sadly, the longer we have to wait the larger the viewership will be. The casual will all know about it, be built crazy AND the fight will deliver, that's a fact

    Not to mention the fight only lasted two rounds and was going head to head with a UFC PPV and the NBA Finals.

    Golovkin-Wade Registers As Most-Watched Cable TV Fight of 2016

    In what has become a recurring theme in his continuing rise in popularity, Gennady Golovkin was once again a knockout in the ring, at the box office and in the ratings.

    The unbeaten, unified middleweight titlist racked up the 16th defense of at least one title following a 2nd round knockout of mandatory challenger Dominic Wade in front of a sold-out crowd at The Forum in Inglewood, Calif. The April 23 bout registered an average of 1.325 million viewers, the most-watched cable TV event of 2016 to date – and with the Nielsen ratings data not including non-subscriber viewership that came from HBO’s Free Preview weekend.

    The main event peaked at 1.388 million viewers, although a progressive spike in rating wasn’t expected considering it lasted less than six minutes.

    With Saturday’s ratings performance, Golovkin surpasses another feared knockout artist for the best-performing cable TV boxing event of 2016. The mark previously belonged to Sergey Kovalev, with his reputation as the best light heavyweight on the planet further supported by his 9th round knockout of Jean Pascal in their rematch this past January, which played to an average of 1.179 million viewers and a peak audience of 1.269 million viewers.

    The night marked Golovkin’s 10th appearance on HBO, which includes eight live headliners, one live supporting bout and an exclusive rebroadcast of his Pay-Per-View debut. The ratings data for such events are as follows:

    Gregorz Proksa (9/1/12): 685,000 viewers
    Gabriel Rosado (1/19/13): 813,000 at MSG
    Matthew Macklin (6/29/13): 1,097,000 viewers
    Curtis Stevens (11/2/13): 1,410,000 viewers
    Daniel Geale (7/26/14): 984,000 at MSG
    Marco Antonio Rubio (10/18/14): 1,304,000 viewers
    Martin Murray (2/21/15): 862,000 at Monte Carlo, aired live on a Saturday afternoon. Combined with prime time replay delivered 1,433,000 viewers.
    Willie Monroe Jr. (5/16/15) 1,338,000 viewers; 4th highest performing HBO bout in 2015
    David Lemieux (Oct. 17, 2015) Averaged 797,000 viewers for an HBO delay telecast of a pay-per-view fight that was replayed on Oct. 24. Fight peaked at 1,043,000 viewers.
    Dominic Wade (Apr. 23, 2016) 1,325,000 viewers; to date, the highest performing bout on HBO (and any cable TV network) in 2016

    :rofl

    Didn't say it was bad, but if it's lower then the fans are paying attention.
    OP was lying? Shame people resort to that.

    Of course he was lying. This is the same POS who made the thread claiming Ward - Barrera averaged 1.5 million.
