Wlad-Leapai Only Does 468,000 Viewers On ESPN

Hopkins' last fight was literally not broadcast anywhere in Europe, maybe besides Boxnation in England, so stop making up BS you unsecure little man

 

So you are saying that Europe don't appreciate the sweet science and don't download videos of the sport's practitioners of the sport?

I mean, why settle for the weak ****** ass imitations like Sturm and Vlad when you can have the real deal?

 

you were talking about watching fights live, now you're resorting to say that fans in Europe download those fights?

the fact is, B-Hop's last fight had ZERO coverage in Europe (not sure about Boxnation), even in POland, where most title fights in the US are televised LIVE nobody wanted to show it, anyone wanting to see it had to look for vids on the internet

 

Not really that.

Boxing in the U.S. is an ethnic sport, predominantly blacks and Mexicans that support it and they support their own guys (with the major exception of Pacquiao). Klitschko is white and European, and there's no built-in fanbase to support him that has the same ethnicity.

 

The heavyweight scene left for Europe over a decade ago. Amerobum heavyweights provide no challenge to the mighty juggernaut called Klitschko hence no Yankee fan interest. Wlad fills out 60,000 seat soccer stadiums in Germany and throughout both west and Eastern Europe. Americans are about as relevant to heavyweight boxing as they are to men's tennis. They simply can't compete.

 

:good
filling out stadiums shouldn't be a drop in the ocean, but you're right
shame you had to post it like a 12 year old, but you're right

 

In my defense, I am 12 years old. ****** Beiber rules. I love how he shakes his spanky in front of a bunch of screaming bubblegummers.

Actually, you are comparing Apples to Oranges, or better yet, Quality to Quantity.

The PPV structure of US (Mayweather) vs Germany (Vlad, Sturm) is different.
Mayweather earns ~$30M per fight plus PPV backend with Showtime, while Vlad earns ~$4M per fight with RTL and the fights aren't PPV but live RTL exclusive events.
So, Germans aren't paying $60-70 to see Vlad as Americans pay to see Mayweather.
if Mayweather's fights were free, I expect to see a huge jump in his viewer numbers also.

 

Who the hell with any kind of life watches a fight at 5 pm on a beautiful Saturday afternoon unless they are in a pub and it happens to be on.
Not me,and apparently not many others.It appears we missed nothing anyway.

 

This is why DVRs were invented and most buyers want them. They allow you to capture now/View later.
These devices will also show up as "live views" since they need to be "watching" to record.:good

Seems although every US household with HBO has a DVR, but weren't interested in taking time to set the unit to record the fight.

 

Im surprised that many people tuned in to watch the undisputed HW king fight a truck driver from Australia.

 

Sorry, I lost track of the conversation for a minute. Which of a half-dozen beltholders were you referring to?

 

That was around 5pm and nobody new the fight was on , anyway a lot more people around the world watched this fight than mayweathers.Even leapai made 1.5 mil and if wlad wasn't a draw no way he would make 25 mil per year.

 

Lets pretend he didn't do 9million viewers in Germany alone then. I'm sure he gives a **** what the Americans think when he bangs his hot as **** wife and looks at his multi-million € bank balance.

I'd say he got more viewers in America than Mayweather gets in Europe.
