Mike Chiapetta of MMA Fighting reports the attendance for UFC 154 being 17,249 for a gate of $3.143 million gate. In addition, GSP, Condit, Ivan Menjivar and Johny Hendrick earned the respective bonuses.
The Bell Centre capacity is listed between 16K to 19K for an MMA event. Compared with GSP-Koscheck in 2010 in the same venue, that event did 23,152 for a $4.6 million gate.
The bonuses were $70K and are as follows:
FOTN: GSP-Condit
KO: Johny Hendricks
Sub: Ivan Menjivar
All were clear cut winners for their bonuses.
Payout Perspective:
A little surprising that the gate and attendance were not stronger considering the return of GSP. The bonuses were well-deserved as the GSP-Condit fight could be considered a candidate for the fight of the year. Hendricks could be lying in wait for the middleweight title with another first round KO. MMA Payout will have more on UFC 154 in its Payout Perspective.
