One of ESPN's first Sunday afternoon cards. Probably will end up peaking around or just below 750-770k.

They advertised this poorly. I was looking forward to seeing this card, and I didn't know it was on until the 9th round of the main event.

I blame the managers. Promoters are doing their jobs putting their fighters on national television & doing press tours etc. Its on the managers to get their fighters publicity. Hell nowadays with social media managers should be hiring social media experts to get their fighters followers...

They were promoting it fine IMO. They had ads on it during the Lakers/76ers game and just in general all over ESPN during the week of the fight. The problem here was that there were no big names on the card. Jose Ramirez has a great backing in the Central Valley, but not a huge national star. Does solid numbers usually though. I don't think this card did terrible numbers or anything, just about what I expected. Probably didn't have a good lead in either which hurt.

Jose Ramirez continues to enjoy a sizeable regional following that ranks the 140-pound titlist among the sport's best ticket sellers in North America today. Growing his televised audience remains a work in progress. The unbeaten super lightweight barely escaped with his title and perfect record intact following his latest bout

Two fantastic fights between four warriors! These 4 fighters gave it their all. Couldn't have asked for more than what Zepeda, Ramirez, Beltran, and Okada brought to the ring Saturday. These 4 are guys everyone would want to see again! And Cancio too from the other card. And if Davis fights an equal, like these guys did, add him to this list of can't miss TV.

This and the DAZN card were the best fights of the weekend

His manager Rick Mirigian won manager of the year. This was the first Sunday afternoon and 14,034 people capacity crowd. So I'd say doing great

Jose is going to remain a local star until he confronts an established champion, Arum is building him, but he needs to hurry up, this dude looked like he was on his downhill in the last fight.

I was watching but it was poorly promoted, ever since espn got ufc they have been under promoting the boxing.
