LOL no it won't. GSP sells more then Ronda and Brock sold more then Conor. What would make you think McGregor + Rousey would beat by far the two best selling MMA fighters at their selling peak on a stacked card? There is nothing that suggest it would even beat UFC 100, never mind "crush it". GSP averaged 780k PPVs a fight, Brock averaged 980k PPV buys. Ronda averages 580k and she didn't even headline 3 or 4 of them. Conor has only had one PPV as a the headline and it did great, but still only around what Brocks average was and below what Brock was pulling around UFC 100. Crush it?
And no Rousey is not estimated to have cleared 800K+ for UFC 190. The only reliable source said she could possibly be over 800k. He said that her last fight too and she only sold 590k.
Wrong. RR's previous fight, including Canada's numbers, came out to over 700k. It was updated my Meltzer. Remind you, that was on one of the least stacked cards we've ever seen. Brock and GSP never headlined cards that weak- they always had undercard support.
McGregor and RR are as big of sellers as GSP and Brock.
