1. Smashing PPV Records
If UFC 205’s PPV numbers come back as high as everyone is expecting them to, it will break UFC PPV records. Conor has headlined the top 3 highest grossing PPVs in company history, as well as 4 out of the top 5:
UFC 205 (Conor vs. Alvarez)- estimated to break the record
UFC 202 (Conor vs. Nate II) 1,650,000
UFC 196 (Conor vs. Nate I) 1,600,000
UFC 100: (Lesnar vs. Mir) 1,600,000
UFC 194: (Conor vs Aldo) 1,200,000
Other proven draws on PPV, such as Ronda Rousey and Brock Lesnar, are still not able to touch the numbers that Conor can do. The UFC 100 record in 2011 was thought to be unbreakable, but Conor’s last 3 fights have all done just that.
