- UFC 195's prelims did an impressive 1,032,000 viewers on Fox Sports 1. This is almost as many as that of UFC 182, which featured the blockbuster headliner of Jon Jones vs. Daniel Cormier. UFC 195 isn't expected to reach the same box office success, but the TV ratings are promising.

- Rizin FC's show, which featured the return of Fedor Emelianenko, did good numbers in Japan. The Spike TV numbers weren't so hot, drawing only 141,000. The event had an unusual morning time slot.
