The Ultimate Fighter Episode 7 drew 372,000 viewers on FS1 Wednesday night according to Nielsen via ShowBuzz Daily. The show drew 0.16 viewers in the A18-49 demo.
UPDATED: Episode 6’s DVR numbers made it the most-watched episode this season thus far with 666,000 viewers.
The show featured the return of Joe “Daddy” Stevenson as he took on Justin Edwards in the fight of the show. Edwards scored a unanimous decision over Stevenson who looked much older than his 34 years. The episode gave us some context about the TUF 2 winner since his days in the UFC and they were very sad.
Perhaps due to name recognition and that Dana White has a soft spot for Stevenson, he was given a “wildcard” to go forward in the tournament despite his loss.
Payout Perspective:
The ratings are slightly off from last week and it had some stiff competition with the Stanley Cup. The hockey finals on NBC Sports Network drew over 3.1 million viewers on Wednesday night. TUF Episode 7 is slightly off from TUF 23’s Episode 7 from this time last year.
