TUF 14 Finale

I didn't realise that Bisping makes that much per fight. $275k is a great number for a live show and not a PPV.

Given this was technically a free show, you'd figure he may get even more if it was on PPV?

The Ultimate Fighter 14 Finale averaged 2.5 million viewers and peaked with 3.5 million on Spike TV.

Spike TV officials today emailed the ratings information to mmajunkie

The Dec. 3 event, which crowned two new "TUF" champs, drew its peak audience for the headliner between "TUF 14" coaches Michael Bisping and Jason "Mayhem" Miller in the 10:30 p.m. slot.

Overall, the event, which took at The Pearl at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, scored a 1.7 household rating, and it was highest-rated finale since the TUF 10 Finale in 2009. It also was the day's No. 1 rated program on ad-supported cable among men 18-49 (2.4 rating) and men 18-34 (2.9 rating).

Pretty solid ratings for the show.

Well the PPV would come with extra payments from the PPV sales so I think he probably got more for this fight since he misses out on that PPV bonus.
