Not bad, not bad at all. The main event wasn't close to Lomachenko vs Lopez, but still really good numbers.

Good stuff, TR has been killing it since the pandemic.

If only they didn't have that headbutt/replay debacle. Instead of building on popularity, it felt as though we were being given a lesson in corruption, incompetence, and debauchery.

damn, no wonder PBC doesnt want to make Spence-Crawford, they would risk losing a house in Beverly Hills. Teo Lopez did better figures. Bud needs to take Bobfather's advice and up his promotion.

Good Ratings! Nobody knows Kell Brook in America like that outside of us Hardcore Boxing Fans so Good Ratings!

Arum will use this against him and will try to get him to take a Paycut "Well You Didn't Do Ratings As Good As Loma vs Teofimo" well that was a bigger and more meaningful fight that ESPN Built up themselves. This was Kell first time on ESPN Ever, Casuals had no clue who the hell he was and I'm sure never seen him fight!

Just for comparison, this is what Lomachenko vs Lopez did:

Average - 2,729,000
Peak - 2,898,000

I know the average telecast numbers for Crawford vs Brook are higher, but that's misleading. The Lomachenko/Lopez went on for like six hours while this one was for two hours.

Just pretty amazing the type of numbers the Lomachenko/Lopez fight did because Crawford/Brook ratings are rock solid........yet don't come close to the other fight.

Starting main event after midnight E/T lost me. Sorry.

Teo is already at 23 a bigger TV draw & star than Floyd, T Crawford's a bigger star and fighter than Floyd!
