I worked for Directv and it felt like a card that did over 600K. Based on the call volume I knew it would be a big one. It being around 800K sounds about right, but wasn't as busy as 189.

And all these shills:
Can someone shoop dollar signs on Dana's eyes?
DGT4NOW & I WILL CUT YOU it's good to have intelligent posters defending Ronda against the idiots. Your work doesn't go unnoticed.
I forgot Ronda was in Fast & Furious 7 which was a massive grossing movie due to Walkers death.
That & her Espy win must have made her even bigger to the mainstream.
It's great. We need another Lesnar, it's good we have Conor too.
MMA Goat, WMMA Goat, Promoter Goat.
Cat Zingano is the first and only mom who has competed in the UFC. She's been wrestling since she was 12 and competed at the world championship level. This "soccer mom" shit is getting really old.Wow. This is why casuals think she is the greatest fighter ever. She is a woman ahead of her time fighting mothers doing MMA as part time.

Haha, not true. Sara McMann is a mom also, so are Jessica Rakoczy, and Michelle Waterson. I wouldn't be surprised if there are a couple others too...
That was a terrible card on paper...people are crazy
This, 100%The world tour isn't going to do much for Ronda, IMO. Everyone already knows who Ronda is and most people don't really give a damn who she is fighting.
Her and Conor had similar starting times with their UFC careers, but Ronda was, rightfully so, on a much faster track being the flagship fighter and catalyst for WMMA in the UFC. It was a very big deal. Conor had to work his way up on the under cards and make a name for himself with his fights and the opportunities to speak post-fight.
The UFC did the world tour to introduce Conor to the world. The MMA community already knew who he was but the world did not. Now they do.
At the end of the day I don't think it would hurt them to do a Rousey world tour, but I don't think it will translate into many more buys, and I don't think it would make financial sense.
Beyond that, Conor is much more suitable to carry a world tour than Rousey. Ronda is very marketable, but she's not the showman Conor is. She can't generate hype for her actual fights like Conor can.
