Dave Meltzer: Many UFC Show have done under 100k, No worries.

[TheDutchRutter]

You guys need to go back and look at the UFC buy rate from 2009

Even then in its prime cards were doing 150k, 250k, and then a big card came and did like 950k.

You need to recognize inflation son. I'll use your example okay so let's say the buy-ins for the card or around the same as they were back then as they are now well Fighters get paid more now I'm sure the cost of a production cost more as well. And even though the cannibalize it from time to time the roster has grown more fighters on the payroll. Just not big name superstars that's their problem.

Did they? Hagler, Hearns, Leonard and others were right before tyson.

Maybe you mean HW boxing?

I am a filthy casual in regards to boxing so I guess it was relative to HW as that's all that I considered.

Surprised 221 did 130 tbh

Terrible card on paper and they upped the price to $65

Shows that most people aren't willing to pay 64.99 for a shit ufc ppv card

I'm amazed how many people are buying that kind of card for 64.99. Romero/Luke and that was basically it. 64.99, damn

Even at 100k buys, that has to be fairly profitable for the UFC, they arent paying anyone sht for that - 6.5 million, plus gate, no promotion - actually its 130k
