    I love Wal-Mart, it's amazing what the man is doing. It will benefit boxing in the long run.

    Go Haymon~!!!

    So far pbc has proven to be a sinking ship, each show is drawing worse than the one before

    I remember a similar thread a few months ago, and you told all the skeptics to wait until the Broner-Porter fight because it will draw huge numbers, but it turned out to be a dud.

    Haymon has to do something fast to turn it around and swing the trend upwards

    Explain how it was a dud. 2.4 million views is bad?

    I think it's good.

    2.4 million is actually quite good, compared to their other #'s. Also, there were other events going on that night so it's fine.

    PBC hasn't hit 2.4 in quite some time. :yep

    So far this was the worst drawing nbc show, with the Thurman-Guerrero one nearly getting twice the ratings.

    It's kind of unfair to compare a show on nbc to one on spike or nbcsports, or whatever other network they are on.

    Al needs to spice things up a bit of he wants to start getting some better ratings. Also his decision making confuses the hell out of me. Lee-Quillin in NY, and Degale-Dirrell in Boston, umm what? No wonder all their shows are half empty.

    The so called billed battle of Ohio took place in an empty arena in Las Vegas :lol:
