      UFC is a private company so they aren't publicly entitled to disclose any financiala regarding salary, bonuses or PPV buys. We've seen this before, UFC hype an event and it doesn't deliver. It's absolute bollocks this event tonight will do 3.5 million

          I can't even be bothered to stream it. Good luck to the UFC on their PPV though.

              The chances of it doing even 2 million are minimal.

              Setting yourself up for yet another L.

                No way this UFC does 3.5 million buys, maybe 500k, most of the people there are Irish men who travled to see Conor similar to with Hatton when he fought Mayweather and Pac his fans traveled to vegas making it seem like it would do huge numbers on ppv in states.

                Most people I know dont even know who these guys are, the only ones they know is Ronda Rousey and Brock Lesnar.

                  That's great for greedy Dana White but how much do the best MMA fighters like Conner and Aldo get paid for their big fight? Do you even know? We all know Pacquiao got well over 100 million and Mayweather got close to 200 million for one fight. No MMA fighter is going to make half that much in their entire career. In the show "the ultimate fighter" they say the fighters are competing for a 6 figure contract but they don't tell you what the 6 figures are. Maybe they are competing for a $100000 a year contract. How does that compare with Mayweather's $200million 6 fight contract or Cotto's $50million 3 fight contract? Boxers get a large share of the money that comes from their fights. In MMA shows the promoters make most of the money while the fighters don't get anywhere near what they should. Are you proud of the MMA organizations for that? However the MMA fighters do get a pair of grotesque, mutilated ears for no extra charge.

                    May/pac did these figures
                    Ppl I knew who didn't know anything about boxing past Ali and Tyson, were asking me if I was watching the fight, result = 4mill ppv

                    I don't know anything about ufc and don't know who is fighting tonight, it ain't got the buzz like May/pac
                    Doubt it'll do 3.5mill??

                    Tbh I knew about ronda's fight, she broke the casual fan status

                      Yeah... and the sky is black.

                      UFC can never ever top Boxing. UFC is a fad.
