May 26, 2016 by Jason Cruz 3 Comments

The sixth episode of The Ultimate Fighter 23 drew 444,000 viewers per Sports TV Ratings.  It shows an increase of approximately 19%.

The fight of the episode was Eric Spicely as he defeated Elias Urbina.

According to Sports TV Ratings, the episode drew 256,000 viewers in the adult 18-49 demo.  The ratings reflect an increase and the best rating in that demo since the first episode.

Episode 6

Last week’s live+SD rating drew 361,000 but increased to 625,000 viewers in adjusted ratings based on DVR+3 which represents a 43% increase from the overnight rating.

Payout Perspective:

The episode rating is a nice bump from last week and is a 20% increase from TUF 21’s Episode 6 last spring.  At 444,000 viewers, it’s the second highest rating for the season.
