The early TV ratings for the UFC’s premier on Fox last night have been come in, and they aren’t good. TV by the Numbers reports that the UFC on Fox drew 4.64 million viewers. Cops, the Fox show that led into the UFC’s broadcast last night, drew 4.81 million viewers, Yes, the UFC – with all its hype, promotion and buildup – got outdrawn by Cops. Sigh.
And it gets worse – more viewers watched Kimbo Slice’s various televised fights than they did Cain Velasquez vs Junior dos Santos. Tito Ortiz vs Ken Shamrock outdrew the telecast, also. Double sigh.
