1- UFC 203 pay-per-view buys
The early estimates of UFC 203 numbers are out and it is showing good signs for CM Punk fans. The show, which was heavily pushed due to the debut of CM Punk apparently, had 425,000-475,000 buys. This is the best numbers for a non-Conor McGregor headlined show for UFC if true, and makes the $500,000 that the promotion paid CM Punk a bargain.
Punk is thought to have added around 125,000-225,000 extra buys, translating into a revenue of between 4 Million to 6 Million. Although Punk’s fight was not impressive, Dana White wouldn’t hesitate to give Punk another rub with such drawing power.
