May 17, 2023 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

UFC Fight Night Charlotte took place on Saturday afternoon and aired on ESPN and ABC.  The main card drew 1.018 million viewers on ABC while the prelims on ESPN drew 617,000 viewers.

Payout Perspective:

The ratings were up from the last time the UFC was on ABC.  This could be due in part to a lull in NBA and NHL Playoffs.  Still, an afternoon card for most of the US is hard to garner ratings but they were able to surpass 1 million viewers.

@Josh_HokitUFC You’re gonna cry you were cancelled by the left for “free speech”. And then you’ll post 200 times a day on Twitter until fox and friends invites you on to “tell your story”. And after that you’ll run for congress and your campaign will be centered on white grievance.

This is

Real question. Was this announced or is there an intern somewhere that is taking note of ever fighter’s follow and unfollow?

Ian Garry unfollowed PFL fighter Alexei Pergande after a clip resurfaced of him taking down Garry in sparring:

"Ian Garry is lying about me... I'm not sure why he made up a lie [about me filming him without permission]."
