    Comments Thread For: Porter-Broner Draws Nearly 2.4 Million Viewers On NBC

    One conspiracy theory on Floyd Mayweather's massive drawing power is that a large portion of his 'fan' base actually tunes in hoping to see him lose. To a lesser a degree, a similar belief surrounded that of his 'baby brother' Adrien Broner.

    That theory didn't exactly hold true on Saturday night, ironically in a fight where he did in fact lose. The former three-division champion was outclassed by Shawn Porter over the course of their 12-round bout Saturday evening in Las Vegas, which drew just shy of 2.4 million viewers while airing live on NBC.

    That is some strong viewing numbers. I hope Shawn Porter gets better opportunities in the near future.

        Don't the numbers usually come out on Monday? That seems kinda low

          I'm glad the fight drew a lot of viewers. Too bad it was an ugly fight though. Broner always gets beat up in front of a large audience.

            Great numbers but Broner's stock is gonna plummet after his performance

              Idk if this is good or not. I remember Garcia vs Peterson and Thurman vs Guerrero did better. I thought this will overthrow those but it seems like it didn't.

                He'll still be a draw, his stock fell after Maidana

                He'll fight 3 tune ups and then they will throw him in the ring with a live dog and he'll lose again

                the cycle continues

                  These are not great numbers, WTF? They're kinda poor for prime time, and a significant drop for PBC, as the article points out

                    If you read the article, the numbers aren't that good for NBC. Thurman vs Guerrero did 4 million viewers. This did 2.4m, that's quite the drop off. This would be fantastic numbers for HBO, but for primetime NBC they are low.
