UFC 251 might go down as one of the biggest cards in the promotion’s history.
According to a report from The Athletic, the event from this past weekend featuring Kamaru Usman vs. Jorge Masvidal reportedly sold around 1.3 million pay-per-views on ESPN+.
The UFC sells all of their domestic pay-per-views through ESPN, and those numbers are not made public, so it the buyrate is impossible to verify at this time. That said, UFC president Dana White teased that expectations for the card were quite huge even before the initial number came in; final numbers wouldn’t be available for several months because many of the PPV buys come after fight night.
