MMA Payout has learned that the DVR +3 data for Friday’s Bellator MMA Live 113 raised the average viewership slightly to 567,000 viewers. Its peak viewership did go up to 970,000 viewers.
We reported the overnight viewer numbers taking a dip to 507,000 viewers which was a considerable drop from the positive signs of growth for this 10th season. Some of the decline could be attributed to the first week of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament.
Payout Perspective:
The slight rise in ratings from DVR viewers was expected due in part to the basketball games. The positive news is that the peak viewership times (which we assume occurs during the main event) are still relatively around the 1 million viewer range.
