UFC 194 projected to do 3.5 million PPV buys tonight

[Bardock]

only on bscene does some dude get all bent out of shape about what another man has to say about a pro fighter who works for an organization that grossly underpays its main event talent. you're bringing your butthurt about me with you from somewhere else, dude. you're probably feeling inadequate without realizing it.


for perspective, sakio bika made 700K when he fought anthony dirrell.

Seriously, that guy is acting like mcgregor is his uncle or something

[racer59]

All down to the current PPV king of combat sports

Who???????

[Southpawology]

would be lucky if it does 1 million

[New England]

Seriously, that guy is acting like mcgregor is his uncle or something

he's a known racist, so that's probably his motivation. mcgregor look like me doe

[Cuban Linx]

It'll definitely do over 1M. The gate is already over $10M and they've been hyping this fight since April.

No UFC event has gotten this much hype and promotion like this fight.

I'm going to say it does 1.5M. Slightly less than UFC 100.

fox sports just started carrying [promoting] the UFC

i dont follow the ufc whatsoever but 3.5 MILLION??
who tf is coming up with these figures??
i hear NO internet buzz or social media buzz whatsoever
NONE i have barely seen commercials for this.

[BKM-]

I doubt either this card or UFC 200 will break their record.

[Cuban Linx]

not sure i believe those #'s.


mcgregor earned $500K in a fight in july

McGregor will also get a PPV cut on top of that.

If the fight does over 330K buys, he gets $3/buy. He will easily be walking away with ~$3.5M when it's all said and done.

That's really the maximum though. You won't see these guys getting Cotto like money, with $15M purses. A top rate UFC fighter that's a PPV attraction like GSP, Anderson Silva, Jon Jones and now McGregor get about ~3M/fight when it's all said and done.

[FeFist]

Are they showing a boxing match on the undercard?

[imperial1]

Yeah ok this fight will be luck to do 1 m

But either way WAR ALDO **** McGregor !
