TUF 28 Episode 5 draws 174,000 viewers on FS1

September 27, 2018 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

The Ultimate Fighter 28 episode 5 drew 174,000 viewers on FS1 Wednesday night via Nielsen according to ShowBuzz Daily.

The fight of the telecast saw Michel Batista dominate Josh Parisian for a two round unanimous decision.

Episode 5 is the lowest-rated TUF 28 episode to date coming off of the highest-rated Live +SD TUF 28 episode.

Payout Perspective:

The ratings thus far reflect the lack of interest in watching this show live.  Rather, it seems to pick up its most viewers when people record it.  We shall see what becomes of the franchise when it moves to ESPN.

Buffer does this all the time but you could tell he leaned over to Hokit before he announced the result. Also, how dumb is Hokit to think he actually won. Lol

Bruce Buffer hates Hokit so much he faked him out while reading the decision 😭
