The UFC was garbage in comparison to Affliciton Banned. The only reason we got a UFC card for free on the same day is because Dana was drawing attention away from the threat that is Affliction.

Anyone that thinks the UFC card was better after seeing both events, or thought it would be better prior to them happening after seeing both fight card lists is just plain stupid and uneducated about this sport. Probably a noobie.

That is all.

I read in an article that the UFC did get more views. But the Affliction did not do bad at all. They had a great first event. They almost sold out the stadium, made a good 2.1million just at the gate, then they also sold a decent amount of ppvs. The nubmers arent released yet thought i believe, but in the article Tom Actencio or w/e his name is said that they did better then any one else thought they would. There already starting to plan another event.

Pretty sure people watched the UFC one more just because it was free, but the Affliction event had over 100,000 people buy the pay per view. That is 4 million dollars just on that alone.

I believe it was the UFC because they marketed it more, it was free, and people know more about the UFC than another organization.

The number of viewers for Affliction isn't known yet. However, it's really impossible to compare the two shows. The UFC show was on basic cable, so while technically not free (as they claim) since people have to subscribe to cable or sattelite TV to get it, the show has a much wider availability than a PPV.

The affliction ppv estimates are around 100,000 buys. Affliction will get half of that money, which wont even cover the fighters payouts. Like everyone said the UFC was more available to audiences as it wasnt a $45 ppv.Overall, the three-hour live UFC event averaged a 2.1 household rating, a 2.8 with men 18-49, a 3.2 with men 18-34, a 2.0 with P18-49 and 3.1 million total viewers. UFC-3.1 mill / Affliction-100K

-Update UFC FN 14 4.5 million viewers

Chris F- Affliction will get half of that 4 mill after PPV takes their cut.
