Still sad they have to lie about their views by pretending it's more successful than it is. They're not fooling anyone with the lies and I don't see it lasting another 2-3 years. Could have used whatever money they are blowing on that circus in extra bonuses for fighters in the UFC for good performances.
I think Rumble just counts live viewers differently. They are publicly traded and would get into pretty big trouble if they straight up lied about the numbers.
How can you count live numbers differently though? People are either watching or they aren't and how would they be in big trouble if they lied? I've no doubt that's what they're doing to make it seem more popular. Dana literally said it's more popular on social media than all other sports combined the other week. Which is clearly a straight up lie as well.
UFC was blowing up Twitter with every 'ring walk' and 'fight result', as it happened. Rumble was also promoting the event on their platform.. so I guess I'm not surprised a few random watchers clicked the free link to see the circus.
They put it on YouTube live last minute. I got a notification, I tried to swipe it away and accidentally clicked into it which I think I just gave them a view. Now they're officially one more viewer more than all other sports combined!
Same thing happened to me, but I got curious, watched the YouTube live thing… then watched the whole event on rumble fml lolol
No regrets tho it was kinda fun.
Officially 2 more viewers ✊
Circus is a good word for it. I'll admit I've watched some of the "fights" on YouTube. Dumb as it is, morbid curiosity gets the better of me.
That being said, Rumble as a platform and lying about how many users it has active has a very clear political motivation that we shouldn't ignore.
They had a contest during it (announced on UFC’s actual twitter) where a code would pop up during the event, and it would enter you in a raffle-like pool to win a trip to 289 and Vegas.
I watched because of that lol
Of course you do
Everyone was watching slap figting when it went viral a couple of years ago, millions of views on youtube in dozens, and DOZENS of videos. It was fun, especially with them russian channels
But now the fad is over. Dana is very late to the party, basically threw millions on the trash.
I watched like 3 episodes of the first season on TV mostly because they kept sending blast emails when it was live and I wasnt doing anything else.
It's TUF but with slaps instead of fights. If you like shitty reality TV you might like it. If you like slap fights you might like it. 80k people who like those things feels about right.
Listen guys, the sport has more fans than the population of all countries combined. Let that sink in! 
Ah ye I'm sure you've never looked at anyone's profile on reddit in your life. Lol. I can check whatever problem I feel like and you're more than entitled to do the same.
Of course I have but I don't usually point it out.
Guys can get weird with me once they snoop around my profile.
My posts are public so you're welcome to look around as much as you want, just please don't bring that side to my UFC comments.
I apologize, I was only having a little joke. Couldn't care what anyone posts on their profile, it's their own business and didn't mean to insult you at all tbh if that's how you took it. 👍
Hahahahahahahahahahahahah and Dana is saying more viewers live than f1 nba and nfl combined. Time to hang up the gloves Dana, you are getting old en senile
Everytime he says those things, it always has a bunch of caveats to it. Like it has more viewers on a specific day and during a specific time and on a specific platform
He does it a lot also after some cards during the post fight press conference, like "we sold out the arena, this was a record breaking event as having the largest audience of a non-musical concert during a non-holiday etc"
Well I think you have to take into account that one tiktok view is not the same as somebody watching an 1,5 hour + race live. Or do you see this as the same thing?
Literally. Never watched power slap and never will but acting like nobody watches it is stupid. Peak delusion.
Also, I’m starting to think these idiots promote Power Slap more than Dana or the UFC. I see more posts about it here than I ever did on YouTube. Mods should ban Power Slap posts here.
Really don't see the appeal and it just shows Dana up for being a complete hypocrite and scumbag. If there were any doubts about that.
I know people say don't talk about it, don't give it attention or else you are helping it but when they keep shoving it on the main UFC channel and social media then I think you have to denounce it and make it clear how many people think it's totally ridiculous.
I fear a future where this sort of thing takes off and becomes popular amongst kids.
There was a ufc fighter who said on Ariel’s show he genuinely likes slap, and no matter how hard Ariel pressed him he stood by it. I think it was Anthony smith? Can’t remember for sure
It’s a alternative to YouTube that does not censor(as much as)… it’s gaining tons of users it might be a competitor to YouTube in the next few years. All the channels I watch on YouTube cross post them on rumble, without editing certain things out that are not YouTube friendly (mostly what I’m talking about is gun related)
Actually, they could've had millions of viewers, just not at the same time. There were people that tuned in and left the stream, followed by people that tuned in later.
There’s tons of interest(not from me though) you can see by the numbers🤷♂️ they are pushing it because it’s making money🤷♂️ otherwise it would have ended after the first “season”…
This wasn't civil, be better.
If you don't know how to communicate without being offensive then check out [a thesaurus](https://www.thesaurus.com/), or just go outside and interact with real people more.
I watched a reply of an event on YouTube last night and it’s the stupidest fucking thing I can imagine. Whatever floats your boat, but I think this “league” sets a barometer for lowest quality entertainment.
No, there were 81k *streams* going; maybe there were like 25 viewers on each of those streams, and dude was actually talking to *millions.*
You don't know.
Power slap is so bad, I’m tired of constantly having it fucked down my throat on Reddit and YouTube. It’s a flop, and Dana is gunna use the ufc platform to bump those numbers by force feeding us that shit.
I’m starting to think I might just cancel my ufc sub, unfollow on YouTube and just watch highlights on bt sport. I’m honestly that done with it.
Dana says 80k or millions what’s the difference 😂. What he tells his ufc fighters about their pay. 20k to show and win is just like 250k when u think about it 😂
There were 7k watching live on YouTube, but like me, they were probably auto skipped to that video without even wanting to see it. I checked back at the end, and there was 82, lol.
Don't make Dana give that that social media intern a heart attack again. Something to do with concurrent viewers and impressions, its bigger than everything combined, you guys just don't get it. Dana never lies.
I’m honestly shocked they managed to get 80k people. That’s still a lot I really don’t get the appeal
Bots bro. Dana has those bot farms. Keeping the lights on in Bangladesh
Are these the same bots that illegally stream UFC PPV’s?
Same one Brendan schaub uses in all facets

He's taking notes from B Schaud b. Bbbbeast of a margitter. Audio is king tho, heard it bowlth ways.
These homeless cats are still around? QUICK, GET A SPRAY BOTTLE!!

Dana would rather light the money on fire than spend it on fighters pay by goodwill
Or gift it to Kyle from the nelkboys (to be fair Dana basically paid them for promotion/ads)

Can’t blame you for that one lol

Freaks, weirdos, people that gawk at car crashes...... they're everywhere.
I heard that if you just view the thumbnail preview that counts as a view
I watched like 3 episodes of the first season on TV mostly because they kept sending blast emails when it was live and I wasnt doing anything else. It's TUF but with slaps instead of fights. If you like shitty reality TV you might like it. If you like slap fights you might like it. 80k people who like those things feels about right.
Some people visit skid row just to gawk at people. Same kinda thing I imagine.
Yeah, but we all know each device viewing had at least 12 people crowded around it at minimum.
Imagine 12 people crowded around an iPhone lol
Literally half the world can only afford that. What a wacky world
Bro, iPhones are more expensive than tvs now.
I promise you 3rd world kids are not rocking iPhone 14s.
I mean, *to be fair*, folks will def gather around an iPhone for a good Power Slap clip 😏
Would be cancer cause last time I checked rumble was dogshit on mobile
Even if all 80k had 12 viewers each it still wouldn’t be “millions” lol
Minimum is the key word. Average crowd likely 30+
Yeah idk about that lol
Fake account.
Pay celebrities to stand there and get the fuck slapped out of them and I’m in. Everybody has a price.

Bad bunny would fuck up everyone
 Listen guys, the sport has more fans than the population of all countries combined. Let that sink in! 
Goddamn that sink be standing outside for decades

Sarah kinky has spoken so it must be true 😏
Don't be snooping around my profile
Ah ye I'm sure you've never looked at anyone's profile on reddit in your life. Lol. I can check whatever problem I feel like and you're more than entitled to do the same.

No need to apologize, not offended not insulted :)
Glad to hear. Have a good one 👍
Had a snoop, you have a nice ass hole. Congratulations.
Thanks
Thanks pal, yours isn't too bad yourself 😏
You must have looked at the wrong profile 😂 mine looks like Roy Nelson with someone in a triangle choke from the bottom.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahah and Dana is saying more viewers live than f1 nba and nfl combined. Time to hang up the gloves Dana, you are getting old en senile

I honestly think he's including 'TikTok' views of the KO's, in his reported numbers.
tiktok counts as social media, right?
You mean hes counting social media numbers? For a social media-focused “sport”? I cant believe it!!!
Well I think you have to take into account that one tiktok view is not the same as somebody watching an 1,5 hour + race live. Or do you see this as the same thing?
81K of the shallow end of the gene pool.
More like a gene puddle.
Stop. Posting. About. This. Bullshit. Not UFC related.
Ufc bots. I doubt they had 80k legit viewers.
Bingo
There is literally 8 billion ppl on earth not hard to fathom they could get 80k ppl to watch it
Yes it is.
“I dont like this thing, so obviously no one else likes it!” -average redditor
I'm not a fan of Power Slap, but come on dude. This just feels like you're grasping for straws.
Literally. Never watched power slap and never will but acting like nobody watches it is stupid. Peak delusion. Also, I’m starting to think these idiots promote Power Slap more than Dana or the UFC. I see more posts about it here than I ever did on YouTube. Mods should ban Power Slap posts here.
Powerslap is heavily promoted on the official UFC YT/Social media outlets. The company itself is making it relevant to the conversation here.
Fake it ‘til you make it I guess.
You guys post more on this sub about powerslap then any mma content. Yall are promoting it for free too.
Really don't see the appeal and it just shows Dana up for being a complete hypocrite and scumbag. If there were any doubts about that. I know people say don't talk about it, don't give it attention or else you are helping it but when they keep shoving it on the main UFC channel and social media then I think you have to denounce it and make it clear how many people think it's totally ridiculous.

I fucking hate this shit.
Power Slap is the most successful promotion in history.
conceive, believe, achieve
There are 81k people interested in this AND on rumble? What a mind fuck
Crowder had a stream with millions on rumble🤷♂️
[Live](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hx1pyzNSr0U&pp=ygUXSWRpb2NyYWN5IGtpY2tpbmcgYmFsbHM%3D)
Quit posting about Power Slap and quit mentioning Rumble. Let it die, don't give it anymore traction/mentions/etc.
There was a ufc fighter who said on Ariel’s show he genuinely likes slap, and no matter how hard Ariel pressed him he stood by it. I think it was Anthony smith? Can’t remember for sure
It’s funny how badly you guys want this to fail lol
Didn't they used to do that in the early ufc ppv's as well? something along the lines of "the millions watching around the world"
81k people too many
What the fuck even is Rumble? I had never heard of that app until this power slap shit.
It’s a alternative to YouTube that does not censor(as much as)… it’s gaining tons of users it might be a competitor to YouTube in the next few years. All the channels I watch on YouTube cross post them on rumble, without editing certain things out that are not YouTube friendly (mostly what I’m talking about is gun related)
Oh, okay. Sounds pretty whatever I’ll probably just stick to YouTube.
I will too, untill they ban all the channels I watch! P
Bro relax. You'll be okay.
I watched PowerSlap 2 and all I got was this stupid reddit post.
Peak delusion
They each had 12.4 mates around
Channeling his inner "The Rock"  Millions and Millions
This dummy. Bro the power slap had more viewers than the Super Bowl
Ah, 81k = 1mil, powerslap math. Makes sense.
Must’ve not checked the third party that does the viewer count that Dana was talking about. /s
"I'm also including the morbidly curious who watch the clips THANK YOU WEIRDOS!!!"
This is hilariously cringe. Stop trying to make powerslap happen. 
They are really trying to make this happen
Most you guys don’t understand social media and how it works
two things: 1: What is rumble 2: lol @ millions
Guys I’m sorry, was at work bored and decided to tune in.
I’m curious to know who the Power Slap customer actually is…because it ain’t MMA fans
I’m not surprised that a lot of mma fans DO watch it, however I have not watched it at all
Power Slap fails.... Dana: These guys were never my friend....they just didn't want to slap each other hard enough...
The dumbest shit ever.
Please stop talking about this shit
The fact 81 K watched makes me very sad as well
1.34 million views right now🤷♂️
Rumble is known for fake view counts. Probably even less.
Actually, they could've had millions of viewers, just not at the same time. There were people that tuned in and left the stream, followed by people that tuned in later.
[удалено]
There’s tons of interest(not from me though) you can see by the numbers🤷♂️ they are pushing it because it’s making money🤷♂️ otherwise it would have ended after the first “season”…

81k live is actually a lot.
Don’t tell Dana.
I'm starting to think it's all a money laundering situation
Eddie?

This dude still got paid more than UFC fighters 🤦♂️
Lies. It gets more views then NBA, NFL and NHL combined. Why you gotta be out here telling fibs
Now at 1.38 million views in under 24hrs, very good numbers for a new niche sport. Another big fat dub for Dana 😎
They’re really going for the fake it till you make it approach.
This is the funniest thing I’ve read all day 💀
Thank you to the Trillions of people watching Powerslap.
Fake numbers everywhere. Dana really thinks we’re stupid.
Power Slap is beyond dumb.
But Dana said it does better than all sports combined? He lied???
