WSOF 29: 208,000
Payout Perspective:
On a weekend where there was no major MMA or boxing event on the calendar except WSOF, the promotion improved upon last month’s ratings. Yet, it is still behind the pace from the first 3 WSOF shows in 2015 as those shows averaged 216,000 viewers while this year the first 3 shows have yielded an average of 194,000.
