There's lots of reasons I like to follow the business side of MMA.
1. UFC ain't the NFL, bad numbers can have serious implications down the line. The shows aren't a guarantee to draw ratings, and to survive UFC needs a strong TV deal
2. It gives a reasonable roadmap to what you will see down the line. Knowing the business of MMA makes it fairly easy to predict most of your upper card, or at least have a good idea.
3. It's interesting. Fight promotion is a very interesting business.
It doesn't change who I like as a fighter, it doesn't change what shows I'm gonna watch, I'm just fascinated by the ins and outs of fight promotion
