Payout Perspective:
After serving in the military, KZ looked fresh and without rust in catching Bermudez with an uppercut that put down the favorite. It’s the best news for the division as KZ has a cult following and is a popular figure based on his fight style. As for the attendance, it was the lowest for a UFC event in Houston. Perhaps the Super Bowl in town at the same time maybe detracted rather than attracted fans to go to the event.
Bad numbers but I wouldn’t blame super bowl for it. People still need something to do.
Thats what happens when you have no names to attract casuals.
Bad numbers for a UFC perhaps, but if GB/Top Rank or PBC were pulling this type of money in for any of their events, let alone a low profile card like this, they’d be thrilled.
9Ok coming to wembley in a few months lol. McTapper begging to lace up some gloves for a real payday.
McGregor makes more money than every single boxer right now and every single mma fighter. 90k at Wembley is the equivalent of a low profile UFC in Vegas. Haha.
