According to Dave Meltzer, the prelim ratings for UFC 204 did not do so hot.
Meltzer reports that the show was watched by 678,000 viewers, making it the lowest of the calendar year.
UFC 204’s prelims, which aired live this past Saturday night on FOX Sports 1, peaked at 837,000 viewers for the Damian Stasiak-Davey Grant fight.
The number was 39-percent below the average.
Of course, the card went up against a tough slate of live sports action, as college football aired on ESPN, CBS, NBC and FOX, along with the MLB Network presentation of the San Francisco Giants-Chicago Cubs postseason game, which was watched by over 4.6 million.
The UFC average this year for prelims has been over 1.1 million viewers.
