"15,650 spectators filled the MGM Grand Garden Arena generating a gate totaling $6.2 million."
Ticket sales all by themselves generated over $6,000,000 in revenue for the UFC, making the fighter salaries even more humiliating.
UFC does not report PPV numbers but UFC 168 did a rock bottom 700,000 PPV buys at $59.99 per buy that's $42,000,000. So. . .
PPV buys (minimum).... $42,000,000
Ticket sales...................$6,000,000
That's a absolute minimum of $48,000,000 with just those two sources of revenue and total fighter salaries were under $1,900,000. Comedy.
