I think Paramount also offered it streaming on their website. Are those numbers included? And I'm guessing dvr numbers are not included yet.

I don't care about the numbers anymore. I was excited to see the fight, and it was a great fight.

800k isn’t dreadful but it would have been nice if this cleared 1 million.

That said, television interest in live sports (UFC included) seems to be at an all-time low. This isn’t just a Bellator problem, although they need to get their shit together with regards to a TV deal in Europe and the US.

That's not that bad in the current climate and Fedor has obviously lost a lot of shine.

Let's see how he does vs Chael.

Dillon Dannis hurt the numbers. By now, everyone knows watching anyone fighting out of SBG is a waste of time cause they're all talk and no action.

I expect the +3's to put this at about a million. It was our second largest gate ever as well, second only to MSG.

I can tell you that everyone in a suit on my end is stoked as a whole about the show.

Its where we add in the #'s of people who DVR'd it and watched later. Sometimes its smaller numbers, but with the amount of other sports that were on at the same time (NBA playoffs for example), I expect the +3s to be pretty good

Got it, thanks for the info.

You think Fedor vs Sonnen will draw pretty big?

was good boxing on also a that time

I don't pay for cable and watch thru nefarious means.....so all the people like me will not show up

I support fighters by purchasing their gear and singing their praises

nearly impossible to calculate all the eyeballs watching a certain event IMO

I think so. But I also think that's a fight a lot of us hardcores will be in to, but relatively newer fans will be curious what the big deal is.

If there's anyone that can sell that fight to a newer fan though, it's Mr. Sonnen.

You were looking good in there boss.
Let's see if we can't catch up with you before/after 199 in San Jose.

The atmosphere was electric.
When all numbers are computed and tallied, on a Saturday going up against so much with the largest weekend box office opening in history with Infinity Wars, I thought it was a homer.
BTW, Avengers was a 10/10.
Even Frank had to catch it hours before his fight.



Because of the post-fight coverage & result, Fedor/Chael will do even better.
The gate numbers blow me away considering it was Allstate Arena in Rosemont.

I think the ratings peaked during his fight
