Am told Kendall Holt vs. Julio Diaz is good to go for ESPN2 main event on May 13. A real crossroads kind of fight.

ESPN keeps up the quality on FNFs

Want to know what's sad? For peanuts, they average 500k viewers on ESPN2, not regular ESPN, and HBO spends 4 million to get a little over that.

I saw some post about HBO's fights getting good ratings recently (in the millions). I'd have to find it.

Its good now, but compared to past shows like in 07, CRAP ratings

Actualy not good. Read Hauser article.

4 million bucks they spent on Bradley-Alexander, to get 1.4 million viewers. That makes it the worse dollar-to-ratings ratio ever in in HBO Sports History.

Remember, in 2007 Calzaghe-Kessler was the bench mark for worse ratings every for HBO Championship boxing, when it didn't get 2 million viewers.

Today, getting over a million viewers is considered a success. How low the bar been dropped under the Greenburg Era

Rated R working his way back up the ladder, Judah better watch out.
