The June 18 installment of the series-which aired five fights over the course of the three-hour telecast-averaged 305,000 viewers, according to Nielsen Media Research. The show peaked at 382,000 viewers, coming at the 10:00pm ET hour for the evening's makeshift headliner which saw Gabe Flores Jr. (17-0, 6KOs) earn a 10-round shutout decision over Miami-based Nicaraguan lightweight Josec Diaz (21-3-3, 14KOs) live from MGM Grand Conference Center in Las Vegas.

Not good numbers again.

Definitely Top Rank need to step up these boxing cards to attract more eye balls.

These shows have been a colossal flop so far.

Televising a Shakur Stevenson showcase is an absolute embarrassment.

Arum should be exclusively televising Mexican vs Puerto Fights during this pandemic. Bring back Latin Fury/Pinoy Power. All wars.

Extra attention on boxing and youre televising showcases? The card Tuesday was mostly good, but otherwise **** off with this garbage..

I love boxing but tired of these garbage card. Best fights never get made. Always have fighters pulling out of fights at the last minute. Now the Katie Taylor-Amanda serrano fight is off! Wtf.....get it together

Tuesdays card was pretty darn good, Thursdays less so. Im not sure what the problem is, overall I've enjoyed the cards, and it's not like there is alot of live action competing against them.

Without knowing the UFC ratings thus far, I wonder if the pandemic and resulting lifestyle changes have diminished the appetite for live sporting events to watch. I love football and was excited about the draft but im not in any great rush for it to come back. Same with the rest of sports. For me, boxing is the only thing I legitimately missed.

Maybe the truth of the matter is that boxing is losing its draw among the masses unless it's a major event and matchup. I hope that's not the case.
