UFC 209 tickets not selling well

[Queen B]

They slashed ticket prices to almost half and still not selling

 

[The guest]

No Trius, or Co-Gar = No sales.

 

[Tamriel Terror]

No star=no big ppv buys

No Trius, or Co-Gar = No sales.

UFC 207 had like 80 seats left at full price a week before the event.

 

[Pliny Pete]

Woulda sold out in Stockton

 

[Nukes]

Shocking. I was so so sure Khabib's 3 billion instagram followers would bring money to the UFC!

His 84 Sherdog fans will be streaming the event.

This bout must conflict with the annual adult film awards.

OR

No one expects Khabib to stay healthy and make weigh-ins.

OR

Woodley vs. Thompson 2 is a little stale.

OR

Live gates don't matter.

They are Russains. Basically North Korea with 1000s of nukes. Very poor.

IMO tickets are too pricey for what it is. No matter who is on the card the nosebleeds are 75-100 bucks a seat. Casual fans, let alone hardcores aren't going to pay that price to watch 6 mediocre to shitty fights and 3-5 good/potentially great ones. I will pay the 60 bucks, split it among 5-8 people have food and drinks at our place in front of the HD TV for a fraction of the cost to go to the event. Granted I realize live events are expensive to go to, IMO UFC has to be more realistic with their market, especially on cards with not much "star" power in the casual eye.

I was being sarcastic.

 

[greenhawk]

UFC is dying bro.

 

[Gnomecuddler]

Saving my cash for 210 to see Moose wreck Weidman!

 

[Bewareofdawg]

The UFC has been shitting the bed lately.

 

[SmilinDesperado]

Not really surprising.
It's an excellent card for hardcores, but casuals don't know nothing about Tyron, WB, Khabib, or Tony

This.

 

[OrigFan255]

Well, 1/2 of $1000 a seat is still expensive as sh*t!

 

[andy9432]

No Diaz no asses on seats

 

[OrigFan255]

UFC is dying bro.

White Belts aren't allowed to make that statement!

 

[Kristian82]

That is a terrible sign for the UFC and also really adds to McGregor's negotiating power with them.
