An average of 7 million viewers in the United States watched the event, with 17 million tuning in for at least one minute. Considering Paramount+ has 79 million subscribers; therefore, that\u2019s really good!<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">And the numbers will only get better after UFC counts up all the international viewing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">\u201cA third of [Paramount+] subscribers tuned in to the [event],\u201d White said of the ratings number. \u201cIt was huge, and the global number\u2019s massive. So, that\u2019s gonna come out next week. That\u2019s the biggest thing that we\u2019ve ever done and, obviously, the biggest thing ever for the sport.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">\u201cMy job \u2014 I\u2019ve been saying this since the the end of the ESPN deal &#8212; my job is to deliver for Paramount,\u201d White continued. \u201cAnd boy, have we delivered in six months. I mean, a lot of the stuff, we\u2019ve just been quiet. We let them announce, and then some of these markets are still in our pay-per-view. So, you gotta go through all the pay-per-view stuff and everything else. But the global number will probably come out next week.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">\u201cThere\u2019s two problems,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re a public company, and Paramount is a public company. There\u2019s so many massive wins from that night, but I can\u2019t talk about any of them because they influence stock movement. So there\u2019s so much stuff we get, I\u2019m telling you, just watch what happens.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">\u201cYou guys know how much I love to win and gloat, and I can\u2019t do that anymore,\u201d White added. \u201cThere\u2019s so much s&#8211;t I would love to drop on you right now, but you\u2019ll see it playing out over the next year, earnings calls and f&#8211;king all that s&#8211;t. So this will all play out, and I just have to keep doing what I\u2019m doing and stay quiet. Stay quiet. Just grind.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The official numbers as announced by Paramount+?
