The event drew 0.16 in the A18-49 demo on the Paramount Network.
Payout Perspective:
Similar to the UFC Prelims on FX, the ratings for Bellator seemed to be nullified due to the choices on Saturday. We note that the Lomachenko fight on ESPN was the big winner of the night with over 1 million viewers in the 8pm ET time slot. The Bellator ratings show that the viewership on both networks (Paramount and CMT) are barely reaching the viewership levels of the prior years when it was just on Spike.
