I know prices were different but I was still a little surprised at the ufc numbers

I heard 1.9m and then 2.4 somewhere else. Both are probably lies, but Conor lost so thats it.
I do want to see Jones-Gus II, since I had Gus winning the first bout
 
I’m surprised the Canelo/GGG did as well as it did. I was expecting well under 1 million considering the first fight didn’t live up to expectations, the PEDs scandal, and non-existent promotion by GBP. It’s especially impressive considering the outrageous cost of the PPV. $85!

The Khabib/McGregor numbers were to be expected considering McGregor hadn’t fought in a while and was in demand. I’m not sure a rematch does quite as well because the fight was in many ways a letdown. McGregor wasn’t competitive at all.
 
PPV is expensive, but most guys I know invite their friends over and split the cost. No one sits at home alone with an $85 tab
