Stevenson performed as expected, a good warm-up fight after this damn hiatus. It was great to finally see a new event.

It was a terrible card only watchable due to the current situation.

Cant they find two mid level guys to slug it out like some of those fnf cards? At least something competitive and entertaining... is that too much to ask?

That earlier fight was pretty good. Cash/Metcalf.

The away corner won like 1 round across all the judges cards lol, but still nice to have some boxing

Exactly. Its a joke

I didn't have the away corner winning any rounds. I'd have to assume the one some of the official judges gave was the 5th round to the guy that fought Cash.

I don't even remember the name, but he was game, and Cash did seem to be feeling the pace toward the end of that bout. Was definitely the most competitive matchup on paper.

Ya that was it, 59-55, 60-54, 60-55, that was the closest fight they showed

[Yuzo]

the jab and the step back are so important.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Viewership for the first televised, live boxing event in the United States since mid-March was reflective of the largely low level of competition ESPN aired Tuesday night from Las Vegas.

According to Nielsen Media Research figures released Wednesday, Top Rank’s 3½-hour telecast on ESPN was watched by an average of 397,000 viewers. The five-fight show drew a peak audience of 609,000 sometime between 10-10:15 p.m. ET, during the main event, in which Shakur Stevenson knocked out Felix Caraballo in the sixth round at MGM Grand Conference Center.

I know Jared Anderson is very young, but he need to understand importance of defense. He took some ugly clean hits in the fight. Wondering who his trainer is ?

Stevenson earned a $400,000 purse while Caraballo made $50,000.
