Numbers for Saturdays fight peaked at 530,000 which is quite remarkable if you ask me especially considering Jones doesn't have any sort of name and Fury was fighting on the same night. Whatever your opinion on Eddie you have to admit he is doing well with figures. Was only 36,000 behind Froch V Bute!
Very impressive with two other cards rivalling it, and one on terrestrial. Maybe casuals are smarter than we thought...
Still miss friday night fight night though...sad times when you think we will neither see limited but intresting boxers like ian napa and jamie moore type fights on tv again
perhaps kell should of got wobbled off a jab and ktfo by a looping right hand in the second round and just blame some ****er else , and go to america looking for the worlds best trainers, then may be he would not be classed as over hyped
Could you imagine what the numbers would be if he could really fight? If he thinks Jones is tough he is in real trouble.
I wasnt saying thats what I thought, but British fans are fickle. Khan getting KOed lost him millions of fans, literally. Everyone I knew was mad into him in the ITV days, once he was KOed they lost interest, half of them didnt even know when he won a world title.... fact.
