MMA Payout has learned from a Nielsen source that Saturday’s WSOF 10 on NBC Sports Network received its largest viewing audience ever with 365,000 tuning in to see David Branch defeat Jesse Taylor in the main event.
WSOF 1 – 198,000 viewers
WSOF 2 – 210,000 viewers
WSOF 3 – 201,000 viewers
WSOF 4 – 264,000 viewers
WSOF 5 – 227,000 viewers
WSOF 6 – 161,000 viewers
WSOF 7 – 94,000 viewers
WSOF 8 – 212,000 viewers
WSOF 9 – 242,000 viewers
WSOF 10 – 365,000 viewers
Payout Perspective:
I found it interesting that NBCSN decided to air boxing as a lead-in to WSOF instead of its prelims which aired on the NBCSN App. The 365,000 viewer average is a good sign that the organization is growing. There were two other options on Saturday night for combat sports fans (Glory PPV, Boxing on Showtime) and WSOF had its best night without really top names in the company. This bodes well for its debut on NBC on July 5th.
