UFC 223 Prelims draw 892,000 viewers

April 10, 2018 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

The UFC 223 Prelims drew 892,000 viewers on FS1 according to Neilsen via ShowBuzz Daily.  The event preceded Saturday’s UFC 223 PPV.

The feature fight of the UFC 223 Prelims was Karolina Kowalkiewicz’s split decision victory over Felice Herrig.

The event drew 0.33 in the A18-49 demo and 0.49 in the male 18-49 demo.

In addition, the pre-fight show which preceded the Prelims on FS1 drew 373,000 viewers.  The post-fight show drew 138,000 viewers

Payout Perspective:

The event did better than UFC 221 and is near the ratings for UFC 220 and 222.  The other ancillary ratings on Saturday for UFC 223 were on par with other pre and post-fight shows this year.
