In a country of 300+ Mio inhabitants thats very poor.Klitschko´s fights in 80 Mio Germany made 10-12 Mio viewers on free tv.

HBO booted Vlad because he was so boring.

True but if warriors vs cavaliers is on the same time. It will do low #s by comparison.

I don't Know about that. AJ vs DW, heavyweight unification, especially if it was on a regular channel, could give any sport a run for it's Money.

Save your sadness for when Wilder baptizes AJ's slow-motion ass.

Amen brother can wait for the day AJ is exposed. At least AJ is popular so millions of people will see that fight. Wilder can windmills his wild punches and hopefully he catches AJ.

But I don't believe Wilder has it in him. We’ll need rely on Haye to do a job on AJ.

The comparisons across markets are silly...for context see my previous post about Wilder's ratings performance

Wilder would b revelant here in US if he actually challenged himself and fought top HWS instead of cherry-picked obscure Euro cans, fat slow Hispanics, and novice ex football players. Pitiful 2 yr title reign..38 fights and ONE top HW defeated.

Those stereotypes ring true, his "reign" has been strange to say the least, but I'm hoping things pick up with Parker on the horizon

Boxing Scene got the story wrong. Kevin Iole has the real numbers.

decent numbers for what everyone thought was goona be an easy fight . he does need to pick up the level of competition , I like him but it's becoming boring , you'd think it would be to him too , seems like he want to challenge himself ?
