In my opinion, they’re not doing it for me. Just a subjective opinion I’m sure others like it, they seem weak to me other than the Khabib/Conor fight. Woodley/Till is good too.

UFC isn't dying but your interest in it is. Time for a new hobby buddeh. May I suggest tentacle hentai?
Oh but it is dying. Their numbers are down across the board. Fact is, they have too many ppvs and too small of a top tier talent pool.
They're getting a shit ton of money from the ESPN deal. 2017 was their best financial year. According to Sherdog they've been dying since 2001.
Th thread I posted earlier today about UFC 227 ppv numbers were hilarious. It hit 300k buys and everyone was like "wow back in the day this was a failure and we're celebrating it"They're getting a shit ton of money from the ESPN deal. 2017 was their best financial year.

Not quite sure how that's even possible but it's interesting. I don't remember 2017 being particularly stellar.

IT WAS THE SECOND MOST SOLD BANTAMWEIGHT FIGHT EVER. There was one time in 2011 where there were 50k more buys and that's it. But apparently we're just super mediocre now lol

It's almost like billion dollar business owners know more about billion dollar businesses than Sherdog financial analysts.
Their business model is changing and they're no longer a fight promotion that relies mainly on PPVs. They're now an international content provider that relies heavily on rights fees.
And boxing Fury vs Pianeta KSI vs Logan September Joshua vs Povetkin Alvarez vs GGG Usyk vs Bealwu Whyte vs Chisora Lomachenko vs Beltrand Garcia vs Spence Wilder vs FuryIn my opinion, they’re not doing it for me.
