    That's factually incorrect.

    1.2 million tuned in for Ward/Dawson
    1.1 for Rodriguez.

    It's the platforms.

    And if he ever got the chance to land a fight with GGG, the sensational manner in which Ward would administer a one-sided beating on Golovkin would propel Ward's popularity through the roof - especially if he starts sporting Apollo Creed trunks as I recently suggested.

    " As of February 2015, approximately 88,255,000 American households (75.8% of households with television) receive BET"

    "As of February 2015, HBO's programming is available to approximately 35,817,000 households with at least one television set (30.8% of all cable, satellite and telco customers) in the United States (35,451,000 subscribers or 30.5% of all households with pay television service receive at least HBO's primary channel),[1] making it the second largest premium channel in the United States (Encore's programming reaches 38.31 million pay television households as of February 2015[update][1][2]). In addition to its U.S. subscriber base, HBO also broadcasts in at least 151 countries, covering approximately 114 million subscribers worldwide.[3]"

    Wow...I guess under 400,000 people watching the fight is seriously poor...

    You totally misunderstood my point. Just because BET is available in more homes in no way suggests that they have more viewers on average than HBO for typical programming. "Viewer base" is not the same as availability.

    I can't speak for others, but until this past weekend, I didn't even know which channel BET was on and was forced to do a Google search to figure it out. And yet, it's been available through my cable provider for all 6 years I've used it.

    HBO, on the other hand, is a premium channel, and I assume most people subscribed to HBO know exactly where the channels for the HBO lineups are located.

    I haven't seen ANY promotion on this, it's on BET, and a lot of people don't know who Ward or Smith is. If Ward negotiates with a big name, he's the B side by default now :lol:

    I guess you don't like the Tyler Perry Madea movies....you'd know where BET is on your TV. :D

    It's a more obscure channel for sure. No argument there.
