A) Name a worse card overall.
B) Name a worse intact (didn't lose main or co-main on short notice) PPV card.
The only one I can think of is UFC 234 (because I was there). That satisfies part A but not part B.
Remember, this is the most meaningless headliner for a card we've ever had by a mile. It's two guys who are 0-2 in their last two professional fights in a non-title fight. We've never had anything close to that situation for a PPV headliner. This main card also has 2 throwaway female fights on it.
Also, if you say UFC 72, you're wrong (just). At least Franklin and Okami were on win streaks and both fighting to be the clear No.1 contender. Undercard was better too, as awful as it was.
Card as listed on UFC.com - only 4 main card fights. Apparently Fili vs Yussef is the 5th but haven't seen it confirmed.
