UFC broadcast announces the new ranking system will launch Monday.
It is:
“… an objective, data-driven approach, rather than based on opinion or popularity. … Designed to reward performance.”
I thought that was always supposed to be the case, but alas. Long overdue. I still maintain real human beings stopped voting about 5-6 years ago so this is welcome.
@BCTheTruthl Also take into consideration the event was on a Sunday evening with a short delay, it was at the tail end of a HUGE sports weekend in the US because you had the NBA finals, NHL finals, and the World Cup! That's not even getting into the Netflix vs Paramount+ angle either!
@BCTheTruthl Nobody got smoked 😂. MVP had access to an additional 250+million subscribers...imagine the WH card having access 3x the amount of subs. Facts>Opinions.
@nakisa_bidarian Should of, would of, could of. Didn't happen so it doesn't matter. The numbers the event pulled are amazing! That's the focus. Congrats again team 🤙🏼
It’s amazing to see how many MMA and Boxing ratings experts exist on X / twitter.
99% have no experience in what they are talking about but they are passionate about it as if they have a degree in viewership methodology and metrics. So wrong, so often.
All shows love for the sports though.
@AndyHickeyMMA I think their best play is to put on 3 to 4 events per year but you MUST have strong cards each time. I think that will be difficult because almost all fighters they'd look at won't be free agents and a large percentage of them will be locked into ironclad contracts.
@malikmagma23@JohnnyDramaChas@KaylaH Ronda's boxing hasn't improved at all judging from all the footage building up to the fight. Kayla actually has good boxing in comparison to the rest of the women in her division. She would piece up Ronda if the opportunity presented itself but I'm positive Ronda shoots asap
The MVP MMA event on Netflix had the same viewership as the UFC White House event 👀
Netflix total subscribers - 325 million
Paramount+ total subscribers - 79.6 million
