Payout Perspective:
The ratings are fine due to the fact that this occurred on Saturday afternoon and ran opposite of March Madness which ruled Saturday on various networks. Beterbiev is a fighter to watch in the future as he continues his undefeated pro career.
Beterbiev is 36 years old, he won’t fight forever (unless Tyson challenges him I gusss).
