Strikeforce Challengers 7 ratings up 111 percent during Showtime’s free preview
This past weekend’s Strikeforce Challengers 7 event, which featured notable prospects such as Lavar Johnson and Miesha Tate, drew a 1.0 rating and a total average audience of 316,000 viewers on Showtime, MMAjunkie.com confirmed with an industry source.
Compared to February’s Strikeforce Challengers 6 event, which averaged just 150,000 viewers, ratings for the March 26 event were up a staggering 111 percent.
Of course, the event benefited from Showtime’s “free preview” weekend, which allowed tens of millions of otherwise non-viewers to watch the premium cable channel’s content at no charge.
