UFC on ESPN 4 Main Card Averages 957,000 Viewers

The UFC on ESPN 4 main card averaged 957,000 viewers this past Saturday, according to ShowBuzz Daily.

UFC on ESPN 4 took place at the AT&T Center in San Antonio and was headlined by a key welterweight matchup between Leon Edwards and Rafael dos Anjos. Edwards earned his eighth straight promotional triumph, as he outpointed dos Anjos in a five-round affair.

The ratings are the third highest of the four UFC on ESPN cards thus far. The promotion’s ESPN debut, which was topped by a heavyweight clash between Francis Ngannou and Cain Velasquez, remains No. 1, averaging 1.463 million viewers this past February.

Meanwhile, the UFC on ESPN 4 prelims averaged 548,000 viewers. That portion of the card featured a women’s bantamweight tilt between Raquel Pennington and Irene Aldana, which Pennington won via split decision. The rating is the second highest for a UFC on ESPN preliminary card.
