With all the live streams and full fight downloads available, it distorts how many people actually watched it. I bet most boxing fans have now watched the fight.
Live streams are pretty much limited to Americas due to time difference. As to downloads, there are not so many of them, at least I was struggling to find those fights at the usual torrent sites and then it downloaded quite slowly (never had those problems with UFC torrents). I would say this way of watching boxing is for the patient and determined, there can't be so many of us.
