UFC on ESPN 15 nets top-five spot in cable ratings

The UFC on ESPN 15 card headlined by a five-round battle between Frankie Edgar and Pedro Munhoz landed in the top five for cable ratings this past Saturday night.

According to the Nielsen Ratings System, the show from Las Vegas averaged 869,000 viewers over the course of the broadcast. The event at UFC APEX got a bit of a late start on ESPN due to the overlapping NBA playoff game just ahead of the fights.

UFC on ESPN 15 also scored a .32 in the coveted 18-49 demographic.

That was good enough for the UFC to take the No.
