MMA Junkie reports the attendance and bonuses from Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 66 from Pasay, Philippines. The long-awaited company debut in the Philippines drew a sold-out crowd.
Jon Delos Reyes, Roldan Sangcha-an, Neil Magny and Jon Tuck earned $50,000 bonuses. Fight of the Night honors went to Reyes and Sangcha-an while Magny and Tuck received “Performance of the Night.”
The event drew 13,446 from the SM Mall of Asia Arena. The arena serves as a basketball arena most of the time and has a capacity of 16,000-20,000.
Payout Perspective:
Returning from the east coast so that is the reason this info comes a little late. A rare bonus for a UFC Fight Pass Prelims fight which is good for the fighters. The attendance was reported as a sell-out so one might guess that the configuration capacity for the UFC was just over 13,000.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mall_of_Asia_Arena. A college basketball game got 20 k seating….so its far from being sold out as floor area from basketball is way bigger than a cage hahahaha
d says
Probably bigger gate than every PBC. HAHAHA!!
saldathief says
Sold out in the Philippines!!! oh boy I bet they will get free ppv like everyone else outside of north America! This would be good news but the UFC can’t sell out in America, Canada, Brazil or any other market they have been in over 10 years!!!! So this is a non news event, especially since financial numbers were not given. And tops says a bb game did 20 k? hahahaha Classic UFC nonsense once again, oh and the main event was a stinker!! D goes right to retard mode, he has no talking points until they are released by the ufc on Monday!
d says
