UFC hasn't done those kind of numbers in YEARS. For the past 2-3 years, they barely even drew a million households for the whole card, usually it's around the 800k mark. 1.8 million is a lot, lot more than what UFC have done lately.Laughing at the damage control spin from MotorCity. Even the twitter user who sucks off everything PBC is telling you the numbers aren't good. Here is how these numbers stacked up against the top 4 Networks...dead last. Only CW did worse (and CW isn't considered one of the major networks always does worse ratings).
UFC cards on FOX avg 2.25-2.M viewers the ENTIRE card. Cherry picking just 1 fight of the card that did 1.8M and pretending that's a success lol. Even the main event did worse then a rerun of some show called New Amsterdam and that was the second worst rating of the night outside of PBC. Reruns of shows avg 2M viewers on network TV. 1.2M for a Network channel in primetime is horrendous. Old people falling asleep with their TV's on draw at minimum 1M TV rating for these networks.Comment

Fight Night on ESPN2 fights with prospects and journey men drew over 400K viewers for their series...which is higher then any of the PBC PPVs. Laughing at you comparing fights on TV or cable tv to subscription. This card did 1.2M viewers which was deal last on Network TV so why you trying to compare to DAZN which you don't even know the viewership numbers or subscription numbers. Why not compare it to actual programs and networks FOX's card competed against...oh I know why because they were terrible. Even the folks who cover TV ratings for living and make what is consider good or bad dummy proof with color's for what is avg, below avg show where these ratings fell for Network standards
Why all that red under PBC?Comment

That's a lie lol here is the overnight and full adjusted rating for every UFC on FOX card in their entire 7 year history
there has NEVER been a UFC on FOX card that has done WORST then 1.67M for the entire card. And that comes with a asterisk because that was AFTER UFC already signed with ESPN and FOX knew they were leaving so stopped promoting their last cards last year. If you exclude the last few lame duck cards when they already signed with ESPN their WORST ratings ever was 1.98M for the entire card.Last edited by bigdunny1; 06-25-2019, 04:11 PM.Comment

It is some people who are Anti PBC, some who are Anti DAZN, some of who are Anti Top Rank/ESPN
You guys are going back and forth with negative news about each of them but suppose to be boxing fans. As a Boxing Fan, I need to see ALL OF THEM DO WELL! Anything over 1 Million Views for boxing is a WIN in America considering how the popularity of the sport has fallen greatly.
So these are very strong PEAK NUMBERS! Ratings Wise, boxing is always going to be hit or miss for ALL of these Platforms not just PBC because again the sport as whole is just not that popular, only certain fighters are popular and will get people to tune in. Having Boxing on consistently would really help instead of the once every 1-3 Months
Boxing needs a Consistent Day and Time on Network TV, no matter if it is a big fight or a weak fight just like every other sport. You have your big match ups and you have your weak match upsLast edited by sicko; 06-25-2019, 04:29 PM.Comment

DAZN is a growing streaming service. Of course they wont be able to get similar numbers currently.
When Netflix launched, it would have been a bad comparison to directly compare network numbers with Netflix numbers, especially when it hasnt even been 1 year since they started.
So, yeah, 1.8 million is more than what DAZN is getting currently, but in terms of getting ratings for FOX. Are they doing bad or good?
Cant you see it from both perspectives? It doesn't always have to be Anti-DAZN and pro-PBC at all cost.Comment
