Cowboys game sells out easy and way in advance. That just shows you how far mma has to go to reach th caliber of the NFL

[beau420]

Most shows in the states aren't sellouts. Last sell outs were most recently UFC 111 in NJ and second most recent in Sydney Australia....but before that we have to go back to UFC 105 in Manchester.

Previous to UFC 111, the last sellout in the US did happen to be in Dallas....so, looks like they may have picked the right place....just make sure it's not during any type of football game (even pre-season)

UFC 103 in Dallas a sellout with 17,428 attendees, $2.4 million estimated gate | MMAjunkie.com

He wishes he could sell out Sowboy stadium

Don't forget about the 60 yard screen above the surface and the 15 yard screens above the endzones. No seat is a bad seat.

with that big ass screen that covers about 60 yards, if you price the tickets right on the upper level they will sell. i mean think about it, if the price was the same or less than paying for the ppv, then theres not that much of a difference. as you get closer obviously the pricing goes way up. so yea with the right card, and right ticket pricing, its very possible

Problem with UFC is that they dont like to make more than 2 great fights per PPV.

It would be amazing a HW championship match, GSP vs Anderson, Lyoto/Shogun vs Rashad/Rampage, Kimbo vs Toney. With that card they would sell out any arena, but UFC never ever is going to make all those fights in just one card.

Maybe they are going to make 2 great matches, and the others are going to be not bad, but of course UFC would hype the whole event as a card of awesome fights and many people will believe them. Even if they make Epic Beard Man vs Dada 5000, Joe Rogan and Dana are going to say how awesome are those 2 (bums) "fighters".

Dana: Listen here is the thing with Epic Beard man, this guy has such an amazing power, he has natural KO punch, and Dada, man that kid is fucking insane, he is strong as hell, this is a great match that makes sense. This is not a fucking freak show like those fuckers from Strikeforce do with fucking Herschel fucking Walker and with fucking Canseco. Epic Beard Man and Dada are the fucking real deal.

Rogan: Dada and Epic Beard man, those 2 are really scary guys.

He could always do a big event and do some kind of classic event pricing and price it more like the old events where.But I know he would not be rich then.I remember paying $150 for second row seating in Bossier city.And 90% of the parking lot had Texas tags.Old George and Reba sold the the Stadium out..step out Dana

[notBJpenn]

Thats the thing, he could sell the tickets for cheap. The fact the the arena sells out is more important then the profit per ticket as far as advancing the sport goes.

exactly. you make the profit on the front row and everything down close. and sell the cheap seats as they are cheap. hell id pay ppv pricing to sit in the stadium and watch it on the big screen. i think its very realistic goal and you dont have to have a high profit margin on ever ticket to still turn one hell of a profit by selling out cowboys stadium
