Bellator MMA's ratings on Spike TV have stayed fairly steady since their debut in January; not reaching the levels of their debut on a week to week basis, but holding strong with an average around 850,000 viewers. But they got a boost on Thursday, hitting their strongest numbers since that debut episode.
The Bellator 91 event, topped by the Light Heavyweight Championship bout between Christian M'Pumbu and Atilla Veigh, drew an average of 901,000 viewers for the two-hour broadcast.
Additionally, the broadcast peaked at just over a million viewers during the final quarter-hour, and the event drew Bellator MMA highs in both key demos men 18-49 (.8 rating), and men 18-34 (.7 rating). Furthermore, the night's immediate replay drew 341,000 average viewers for a combined audience of 1,242,000 viewers.
