Despite good television numbers for its debut outing as a solo promoter on Showtime cable, foreign fight organization M-1 Global had a tough time at the gate, drawing just over 1,000 fans for its recent Virginia show.
Mary Broz-Vaughan, a director of communications for the agency that oversees the state’s MMA regulation, told MMA Fighting that M-1 Challenge 24: Damkovsky vs. Figueroa, drew 1,007 paid fans for a live gate of $30,650.
The event, which took place at the Ted Constant Convocation Center in Norfolk, was the first of four shows to be broadcast on the premium network, as first reported by MMA Fighting.
