    According to Dan Rafael. If true, that's brutal.

    Hbo week prior did 700k with barker vs geale.

    126 pounders don't sell in the US for some reason.

    That was, on paper, one of the best double headers of the whole year... Anyone who missed out, missed out.

    Not really an accurate statement, considering these were Mexican fighters

    Showtime and HBO ratings are drawn from the US audience.

    So, yeahhhhh...

    It probably had more to do with Showtime not being shown in a number of homes because of the whole Time Warner / CBS battle that they are having.

    I'd tend to agree and like to see the numbers of homes affected by this blackout(I'm one of them).

    Dan Rafael said the Showtime average for a main event this year is 590,000 so I'd guess 480,000 isn't a bad number considering Time Warner is the second largest cable company in America.
