PFL 4 Prelims on ESPN2 draw 227,000 viewers

July 15, 2019 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

The Professional Fighters League Prelims airing on ESPN2 on Thursday drew 227,000 viewers per Nielsen according to ShowBuzz Daily.

The event drew 0.08 in the A18-49 demo for its 2 hours on the network.  The main card, originating from Atlantic City, aired on ESPN+.

The prelims featured Glaico Franco as he defeated Sadibou Sy via TKO.  Unfortunately for Sy, the network did a big feature on Sy’s friendship with LA Rams running back Todd Gurley.

PFL 1: 137,000

PFL2:  120,000

PFL 3:  113,000

PFL 4:  227,000

Payout Perspective:

The event on the digital platform featured Kayla Harrison as she defeated Morgan Frier.  The eventual showdown with Sarah Kaufman seems inevitable.  Also, Magomed Magomedkerimov advanced in the weltereweight tournament via unanimous decision.  The viewership has gone up tremendously from the prior 3 PFL shows as you can see which seems like a good sign.
