What will the Conor incident do for 223’s PPV numbers?

[Blicious]

All his stupid antics aside, what will it do for 223’s ppv numbers? The conor incident generated main stream attention 223 would have otherwise never got.

 

[1Shot1Stroke]

Considering 2 great fights were knocked off the card it will do worse.

 

[Oregonmma]

Fucking stop with this bullshit. Conor isn’t in 223 and he put the entire card in jeopardy. 3 solid fights are now canceled, the card is more fucked than before the incident.

Kabib Conor for Saturday would be 2 million

 

[tjnickels]

3 fights canceled, the guy getting all the attention isn't even fighting, so probably nothing imo. Casual fans will come out in droves to buy the next Conor fight though.

Lots of people who probublay had no idea there was a ufc fight this weekend might tune in now or show up at the bar to watch.

I bet it climbs. Ufc mainstream advertising has fallen off bigtime.

If it wasn’t for here I’d never know when cards are on and half the time I still don’t anymore.

More casuals because of the publicity but fewer Micheal Chiesa, Ray Borg, Anthony Pettis, Brandon Moreno, Artem Lobov and Alex Caceres fans so....... probably a net gain.

 

[Cold Front]

I know the popular answer is that with fewer fights on the card the PPV will do worse, but I'm actually more interested in watching the event now because of what Conor did and how the UFC plans to handle the incident in the short term. So it's possible the numbers could see a slight bump up if a few more people feel the same way.

And let's face it, it's not like Lobov, Chiesa, and Borg were the kind of fighters driving up the numbers, anyway.

ye i would say about tree fiddy

conor doesnt even fight so whom would buy a card based on his appearance in a parking lot?

 

[OxSxM]

Of all places it happens in NY lol...

 

[Bobby Boulders]

If the casuals understand that Conor was after Khabib, you never know, they might want to watch to see if Khabib is any good or not. And if it ends up somehow that Conor fights Khabib in the cage someday, that fight probably breaks records.

Considering 2 great fights were knocked off the card it will do worse.

And 3 fights total, I know I'm less interested. Dana's sucking of Mcdolly chunker's dick all the time is kinda biting him in his ass at this point. Dana's literally like one of those bad parents that give their kids everything but don't ever discapline them, and next you know they are terrible brats.

How is this going to help 223? It lost 3 fights.

It's not like Conor is going to be on the card.

You’ve seen him throw a dolly, now watch him fight.

Prison ufc one only on PPV.

Conor(the dolly chunker) McGregor vs Charles “Krazy Horse”
“Lightning “ Lee Murray vs Alecssander “hiv pos” emilineanko
Dasik “Legit crazy” vs Wesley “darkest brother in Hollywood “ snipes

Don’t underestimate the power of casuals who ride Conor’s nuts

 

[Not A Real Fan]

I think dumb WWE-ish casuals may actually buy the PPV thinking Conor may show up.

 

[Newave]

It might actually get a small bump just because most casuals I know didn’t even know there was a fight this weekend before this incident happened. Now they at least know it’s an option for Saturday night.

 

[greenhawk]

Once casuals get to know that he was after Khabib they'll definitely tune in to see who this guy is.

 

[Shadowthrone]

Would nutthuggers be insane enough to buy a card just because Conman ruined it? I think so.

 

[90 50]

I didn’t even know they were on the card so more than likely yes.

Hell I might watch it now. I hadn’t planned on it, have never seen kahib or ferg fight.

(Or Conor either for that matter)

But if this publicity stunt has people talking about kahib vs Conor in the future and I might get pulled into watching it I might need to actually see a kabab fight
