700k+
Just the way the four feature fighters bring it…Intense greatness.

UFC 223 "Conor Cageside"</p>
The two title fights hold immense historical significance, the hype comes closer to events these days.
Joanna is the GOAT of WMMA arguably. Ferguson/Khabib is one of, if not the greatest Lightweight fight in UFC/MMA history and realistically a top 20 MMA fight of all time on paper.
There was an extended break from MMA so the appetite should be built up and it’s happening on the heels of Joshua/Parker(which actually has a quality undercard also with Josh Kelly and Povetkin/Price) and the NCAA Final Four, so people will be excited for combat sports and sports in general, and it’s spring, this should be pretty damn big.
600
550k
950
I hope it does well/
I’ll take 500 in the ovah undah
400…there hasn’t been a hyped one for a little while but they haven’t done a good job of promoting this. Might benefit from march madness being over, I dunno
500-600K…If the ppv was $29.99 900-1.2

Agree with this. Sometimes i wonder if the quality of the card matters as much as the popularity of the fighters. Conor vs anybody=big draw, everybody else=meh.
This card is trash outside of the main event and co main event. Not worth $49 bucks!
and it will not do more than 400k, unless the UFC lies about the numbers yet again.

Bullshit. Nothing against you, but that's just not fair. Two blockbuster title fights we know about obviously, they're of can't miss importance to any true fan.
Remember 11-1-1 Moicano beat Jeremy Stephens less than a year ago and only suffered his first career loss to Brian Ortega in his last fight, he's fighting 18-2 Calvin Kattar who has not lost in over 8 years and is 2-0 in the UFC including that action packed war with Shane Burgos and Andre Fili, who is a badass also. That's #11 vs. #13 winner is top 10.
#9 (14-3) Michael Chiesa vs. #12 (20-7) Anthony Pettis. Former Champion in Pettis and TUF winner in Chiesa, winner is top 10.
13-3-1 Al Iaquinta ranked #11 (fight win streak, 8 wins in last 9 ufc fights) vs. 15-3 Paul Felder coming off 3 finish victories in a row including wins over Charles Oliviera and Stevie Ray.</p>
These are all fights of clear consequence to the top 10 rankings.
I’m gonna say 750k.

No it would not sell that many more, you guys don't realize most people that will pay $29.99 will pay $59.99

Hard for UFC to lie about numbers that they don't release.
The Jones/Cormier card did 800k with three titles and a lot more hype honest opinion 350k maximum.
UFC is tanking, nobody even knows about their events anymore… where do they even advertise?
350 sounds more reasonable
450k. I think Khabib is close to the household Bane stage (I.e. jones, Cormier) but not quite yet. If he wins he’s on the GSP level which is an easy 700k every time.
350k MMA isn't what it use to be and I think a lot of these higher figures are viewed from the hardcore MMA POV.
Khabib on Russian TV will do some crazy numbers

Esss free in Russia. I watch most my fights “from Russia”
