  1. DC vs Bader has a story to it. DC vs Gus doesn’t make sense. But it’s a bigger draw in their opinions.

    Btw do you know the Bellator 140 attendance and gate?

  2. Btw Jason you still owe me an apology about saying my perception is not reality when I said that Kimbo/ Lashley/ Mariusz Pudian are big draws. And create high web traffic. Mariusz Pudianowski is Poland’s biggest draw. And you saw what Kimbo did at 138 peaking 2.4 million/ DVR peak about 3 mil and averaging 1.6 million for the whole card. Lashley averaging 1.8 million during his fight.

    Also you said Bellator doesn’t make any money. And I told you they get good gates/ attendances. They also have a lot of broadcast deals around the world and make money off of sponsors. KSW and ONE are very successful in Asia/ Europe as well.

    Is Affliction now sponsoring Bellator fighters? I saw Koreshkov have Affliction shirt and gear.

    1. Kimbo proved to me that he is still a draw in 2015. Throughout the promotion of Bellator 138, I stated that I was not sure if Kimbo was still a draw in 2015. In terms of Mariusz Pudzianowski, show me data that he is a draw in North America? Is he a draw in Poland? Yes, but only the hardcore MMA fan base knows who he is. At this point, he has not proven to be a television draw in the United States.

      Yes, Affliction is now sponsoring Bellator fighters. Great for the fighters that another t-shirt company is staying in the business.

      1. Go back and read what I said. I didn’t say in America, I said he’s Poland’s biggest draw. And Lashley is a big draw too. And now do you see my point on Bellator making money besides the UFC.

        Bellator 140 had a bigger rating than TUF Finale 21. Both didn’t have much competition. But there’s always more competition for Bellator on Fridays than for the UFC on Saturdays/ Sundays/ Weds.

        Btw have you seen how many views Mariusz/ Lashley/ Kimbo’s fights have on youtube? Millions and millions.

        1. When discussing a “needle mover” in MMA, I do not consider You Tube views. I only consider live television viewership. Gate and attendance is something I am currently working on, when I know what those numbers are, they will be published in a story.
