Bellator Kickboxing drew 287,000 viewers on Spike TV Friday night according to Sports TV Ratings.
Friday’s event was live from Budapest, Hungary. In addition, the event which aired from 9:00pm-10:51pm ET drew 105,000 in the adult 18-49 demo.
Previously, Bellator Kickboxing drew 346,000 viewers in its debut this past April. In June it improved to 418,000 viewers .
Payout Perspective:
Bellator went up against College Football on FS1 (USC/Utah) which drew 1.042M viewers. The event was the lowest-rated of the 3 thus far as Bellator is attempting to re-introduce kickboxing to Spike. Thus far, it does not seem to be working.
It’s boring and spike refused too see it. They better off using that money and time to produce build up shows for Bellator events.
