UFC 227 PPV #'s are in

[Myrddin Wild]

These are phenomenal numbers in comparison to history. The perfect storm I suppose.

Mighty Mouse was not main event. So you can’t give MM that much credit

He tends to bring down the potential number of views either way.

These would be phenomenal numbers.......For Bellator or any other MMA organization perhaps.

But this is the UFC and 300,000 buys should in no way be viewed as anything more than a below-average(AT BEST) number.

300k manlet buys are like 80 - 90k real buys.

Not impressive.

Spoiler

sorry

So are Conor PPV sales. Vastly inflated by his nuthuggers.

700k for the Diaz 2 fight.

To start with, Bellator's top number 100k... so I'm not sure what your comparison is there.

You are living in the past bro. Outside of the big huge events that bust through the half a million buy threshold... 300k has not been the norm for quite some time it's like the top of the buy rate for lower drawing events (if that makes sense.) In other words, we're not comparing GSP, Conor, Ronda, or Brock's buy rate when saying 300K is amazing for this PPV. We're recognizing 300k as the top of the lower drawing PPV's and especially excited about it when you're looking at Mighty Mouse numbers... which was actually the point I made if I remember correctly.

08/30/14 UFC 177 Dillashaw vs Soto 125,000
09/27/14 UFC 178 Johnson vs Cariaso 205,000
10/25/14 UFC 179 Aldo vs Mendes II 180,000
11/15/14 UFC 180 Werdum vs Hunt 185,000
04/25/15 UFC 186 Johnson vs Horiguchi 125,000
09/05/15 UFC 191 Johnson vs Dodson II 115,000
04/23/16 UFC 197 Jones vs. Saint Preux 322,000
12/10/16 UFC 206 Halloway vs. Pettis 150,000

When you look at these numbers from Mouse's past... you can see why I made this 300k PPV out to be an amazing number for this event.

TJ > Stipe.

HWs can't even out sell 135ers.
Stipe is as bland as cardboard.

Mighty Mouse riding the PPV point coattails of more entertaining fighters.

226 sold 380k. And Mighty Mouse doesn’t get PPV points.
