Meltzer:
The Logan Paul vs. KSI fight was gigantic, reportedly doing 800,000 iPPV buys (an all-time record) and it did 3 million Google searches, as it was ahead of everything all weekend except John McCain and Leonard Bernstein on Saturday. UFC Fight Night was No. 10 today with 20,000 searches but didn't crack the top 20 yesterday.

That is insane

That’s embarrassing and not a good sign for our future.
Ha ... you changed to CUNT

Breaking it down, that is an $8m gross (if it was $10 per) with about $5.5m rev from the iPPV.
That equals about 137,500 UFC buys or double what Bellator did for its PPV at MSG

That's hilarious, but once again goes to show fight sports like MMA and boxing are more spectacle than sport, at least in the eyes of the general public.

But hey, as a capitalist, I must applaud them. They created a demand.

50 or 60 years from now, whatever the equivalent of millennials is at that point will 'rediscover' actual physical sports and it will become a trendy hipster thing like listening to vinyl has become now

And in the ballpark, if not bigger than this recent UFC card, featuring two championship fights.

been thinking about this a bit today as it was mainstream news. fuck it, if this sort of thing gets otherwise disinterested youngsters to compute that paying to watch fighting on tv is legit entertainment, it's handy for us. I support it.

lower price and folks will buy events in in massive numbers

15 bucks is the top for an event for most people

UFC drops the price and the buys would skyrocket

just milking the last of the morans $$ IMO

Question for my fellow mma community people.. I watched the highlights.


When KSI was weaving, he would just bend at the hip and move his upper body down and forward/side to side, leaving the top of his head completely exposed(instead of bending at the knees in a good stance where you can still see punches coming in).


Is getting hit on the top of your head more dangerous than a typical punch?
