PBC on Fox drew 1.69M viewers Saturday night

December 23, 2018 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

PBC on Fox Saturday night drew 1.69 million viewers according to Television By Numbers.  The first event for PBC as the anchor to Fox drew 0.5 in the Adult 18-49 demo and a 2 share in fast overnights.

The event was set to air from 8-10:30pm and the ratings reflect just the first two hours.  The event featured the Charlo brothers in the main events of the evening.  Jermell Charlo was upset by Tony Harrison and Jermall Charlo was not impressive in a win against Matt Korobov, a last-minute replacement.

The last PBC on Fox in August drew 933,000 viewers.  In April another PBC on Fox drew 880,000.  In February, PBC on Fox drew 1.06 million viewers.

PBC on Fox was last in overall viewership for its time slot but second behind a Dateline NBC rerun in A18-49 viewership.

Payout Perspective:

The ratings are still below the pace of UFC on Fox cards which may be seen as a disappointed considering the additional shoulder programming Fox gave PBC including mentions during the NFL on Fox as well as a ton of shoulder programming on FS1.

I should point out that according to those at TKO that the ESPN/MVPW boxing deal is a revenue sharing agreement similar to the original AEW/Turner deal in 2019 and not a full paying media rights deal which Top Rank had and wasn't renewed.
