The very-early ratings are in for Saturday’s UFC on FOX event, and the one-hour special drew an estimated 4.64 million viewers, according to tvbythenumbers.com.
More complete and accurate ratings information will be available on Monday.
But based on initial estimates, the UFC on FOX broadcast (and Cain Velasquez vs. Junior Dos Santos title fight) scored similar ratings as “EliteXC: Primetime,” a 2008 CBS-televised event with a “Kimbo Slice” vs. James Thompson headliner that scored 4.3 million viewers and a peak of 6.5 million.
