Fair amount of MMA on tonight. Just thought I'd start this thread for people to discuss these two events instead of including it in the UFC 180 thread to avoid spoilers for those who'll be watching at a later date. Like the look of Bellator's card. Shame it's clashing with UFC 180 though. WSOF can be viewed here…

The ratings were very good alright at least, but I dont think it's wrong to question such large sums of money being spent, no one wants to see Bellator go bust

Most people's issue is fighters not being paid enough, not the health of any given promotion

It was on Spike so i assume thats no PPV im not familier with it tbh but it peaked at 2m viewers for there fight which is a good draw, still didnt deserve the 300k mad money.

Sorry I mean viewers in general, not buys.
He's viewer draw was at least equal to the rest of the card. That's the basic economics of it.
