Bellator 184 draws 437,000 viewers on SpikeTV

October 9, 2017 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

Bellator 184 drew 437,000 viewers on Friday night on Spike TV according to Nielsen via ShowBuzz Daily.  The ratings are the lowest for 2017 on Spike TV.

According to Nielsen, the telecast drew 0.16 in the A18-49 demo.

The event was headlined by Darrion Caldwell taking the bantamweight title away from Eduardo Dantas.

Payout Perspective:

In all honesty, I forgot that this event was on this past Friday.  Whether it was my oversight or the lack of marketing for this card, there was not much made about the card despite a title fight.  Bellator’s telecast was followed by Bellator Kickboxing which drew only 250,000 viewers.  Not the best of night’s for combat sports on Spike TV.

This Anthony Smith situation is sad, its another cry for help of someone that's obviously suffering from something. No way you harm your wife and threaten to kill yourself just because.
