So here are the numbers:

Magdaleno vs Yenifel Vicente - the telecast peaked at 392,000 viewers, average 311,000 viewers
Stevenson vs Caraballo - the telecast peaked at 609,000 viewers, average at 397,000 viewer

https://www.boxingscene.com/magdaleno-vicente-espn-telecast-peaked-392k-viewers-averaged-311k--149472

I would say not bad after-all, this is just the first fight telecast live in this pandemic, just imagine if these are top tier fighters, I'm sure it can go as high as 1 million viewers on average.

Yeah, not bad at all. Just curious if Top Rank did profit on those fights or it's just a gimme by Bob Arum to the followers of the sweet science.

For top tier fighters, IMO they will wait until audience could watch to generate more revenue from the gate.

Arum is good at hiding his numbers  Smiley, he may say publicly that he didn't profit in those fights, but if you are not aware of, Arum is a practicing tax lawyer. Before becoming a boxing promoter, he served at the Justice Department under Kennedy's administration, and he is the one who prosecuted the allegedly tax evasion case of Roy Cohn, a boxing promoter, who made tons of money from the Sonny Liston and Floyd Patterson. And that open his eyes about boxing promotions.

I already make bets in boxing but that games are the games of the people champ Manny Pacquiao. I am really not a fan boxing. I do not watch every Filipino that fights boxing but I was inspired how good he is on that profession so I do watch and ofcourse bet on his games. Unlike in basketball, my bet is pure money.
Betting doesn't choose if you are a fan or not.

As long as you understand the sports that you are betting just like you have mentioned with boxing. You can bet.

But this time, there's no match for Pacquiao so are you willing to bet for other fighters?

As what the title of this thread we may bet online on boxing if this ambitious plan of Bob Arum pushes through.

Quote
Arum: We'll Do Four-Fight ESPN Cards Two, Three Times A Week Starting In Early June

This may sound ambitious but knowing the connection of Arum in the boxing world, i hope he can pull this one and this is good for us bettors too  Smiley.

Quote
“We have contacted most of our fighters,” Arum told co-hosts Gerry Cooney and Randy Gordon. “We plan to launch the first week in June in a safe, secure way. We’re gonna initially launch in Nevada.

What are your thoughts on this guys?

https://www.boxingscene.com/arum-well-four-fight-espn-cards-two-three-times-week-starting-early-june--148810

That was an alternative initiative just to let sports events to continue even at this state of pandemic. Bob Arum was really an influential personality in the world of boxing so there could really be a possibility that this idea of him to have boxing event might push through as long as there will be strict Health protocols that will be implemented.

This news is good specially for sports bettors because they can now have a chance to bet on sports events even they are staying at home. I think this will also be implemented into other sports events on which only players will be at the venue with less audience capacity or no audience at all just a live stream of the game. If that would happen then it will be a great thing because sports betting events will now take into place enabling sports bettors to play even at this pandemic.

Probably he did profit, but not as expected. Worst case scenario is that he could just be break-even in this fight for all we all.

For top tier fighters, IMO they will wait until audience could watch to generate more revenue from the gate.

If this pandemic continues, I doubt that there will be boxing fans allowed to watch the fight. Yes, they are missing a lot of money from live gates attendance, but this is better as compare to no money generated and you are losing revenue because of no fight.

When did you put your bet on Manny Pacquiao, he has no active fight yet, the one with the GGG fight was just an speculation, it wasn't scheduled yet.

Unlike in basketball, my bet is pure money.

Basketball is not back yet, both local and NBA, but they will be back soon, I can feel it, so get ready with that bets as it's gonna be more exciting when they resume as it's gonna be a different basketball.

This month of June would be an exciting one for Filipino fight fans as Mike Plania will slug it out with Joshua Greer Jr. in a 10 round fight, 120 pounds catchweight on June 17, 2020 MGM Grand, Las Vegas. Joshua Greer's name floated last month as a substitute for Inoue to fight Casimero but i guess it's scrap since Bob Arum expecting the fight between Casimero and Inoue would push through this July.




Anyone knows what bookies offer odds for this fight?

Interesting to see what the is the odds for this fight, Greer i think would be the favorite here but i'm betting for my countryman here as Filipino fighters are tough and unpredictable  Smiley.

I haven't gambled in this site, but maybe you can try.  Smiley

It is to be expected that Stevenson should win this fight against Caraballo.

Expected but not guaranteed otherwise there will be no more betting on that fight  Smiley.

Just the odds though, it seems that bookies really 'expected' that Stevenson will have an easy fight and that is what we saw.

I said that I'm not sold on Ramirez because of the strength and loss of his first fight. Anyhow, still early to say, even Vasyl Lomachenko lost his second fight against a very tough Orlando Salido. But look at Vasyl now, p4p so let's see if Ramirez has a bright future.

@7788bitcoin - yes, the next schedule fight has a shit odds, its obviously the Bob Arum just wanted to see what will be the result of boxing in this pandemic.

We have a few fights this Saturday but the odds are shitty as hell and that is the biggest difference between MMA and Boxing as you will get to fight lesser talented fighters against upcoming talents and until you raise good number of victories under their bag against easier opponents and then they will think about fighting tougher opponents and once that is the situation you cannot expect good odds nor interesting fights.  

The odds might not good for the heavy favorite, but a good sportbook would always put a handicap betting so we can choose a good odds for the value of our money, taking 1.50 up is good for me, but 1.10 to 1.30 seems not, even if I believe a certain boxer will win.

Shakur Stevenson was too much for Felix Caraballo as the former stops him in the 6th round of their 10-round non title fight in Las Vegas.

Yes, too accurate, that body shot is beautiful.  Smiley

Interesting to note on this card that Robeisy Ramirez also won against Yeuri Andujar via first round stoppage. Ramirez was the one who beat Stevenson on their showdown in the finals of the 2016 Olympic Games. These two fighters might cross path in pro boxing in the near future.

I also wanted to see this fight in pro. I'm sure Stevenson wanted to show who really deserves the gold medal in 2016 games if they rematch as a pro boxer now.

IMO, the first act of Bob Arum was successful, kudos to him for making boxing up on it's feet on this time of pandemic.

Next card will be on June 11, 2020 and it will feature Jessie Magdaleno and Vicente Yenifel on the main event.

I was looking for inputs from boxing analyst regarding this fight. So far I haven't seen any negative press, so for now we can call this a successful event.

I'm not sold on the Ramirez vs Stevenson though, yes Ramirez won the gold in 2016 Olympics, but his debut on pro rank was a lost. So there's no more hype on Ramirez, unless he build a good resume before he can face Stevenson because Shakur is the most hype boxer between the two and even compared to Floyd Mayweather.

For me, there is always hype on that one considering that Stevenson is the top dog on the featherweight now and Ramirez being the one who have beaten him that means the later has his numbers. In boxing "style makes fight" so maybe the style of Ramirez would give Stevenson some problems. Before their match-up could happen, Ramirez should also do his part, win convincingly every time he fights so when the time comes for him to face Stevenson, marketing him would not be a problem anymore.

But I do agree that we should give props to Arum, for staging this one. I'm sure they see some area that needs to be improved. I'm excited to see Magdaleno next, - June 11 or 12, depending on your location.

I did bet on Jessie Magdaleno winning the fight, not that huge amount though. Just enough to get the fire inside of me to bet on boxing again in this new norm and see how the process will go after. Yes, we need this test fights in order to ensure success in the future as Arum needs to see area for improvement here. So definitely, this is very interesting outcome for boxing fans.

Good luck  Smiley

So you took the 1.10 odds? Good luck, it looks like an easy money though but as I said, it's not my type of odds as I like to bet on bigger odds like what bisdak40 has done here.



Betting for Caraballo here for obvious reason, you get 15X of your bet and looking at the later's record he has higher KO percentage than that of Stevenson, who knows something might happen here as it would we crowd less so it's like they are fighting in a neutral ground.

Few hours from now we could already see some fights held in Las Vega and just hope that no untoward incidents happen like fighters tested positive for COVID-19 and pull out that particular fight.

I hope everything will went well.

The event will not be successful if there are people tested positive, and we don't know yet if people will really come, some of them are careful now and they prefer to just watch the fight at home.
