The final numbers are in for last weekend's UFC on Fox 13 card, with the overrun and west coast viewership taken into account, as Dave Meltzer at MMAFighting.com reports it officially drew a 1.6 rating with 2.8 million average viewers.
The broadcast peaked with 3.8 million viewers during the night's five-round main event between Junior dos Santos and Stipe Miocic in the overrun.
It puts it at an identical average viewership to last December's Fox card headlined by the rematch between Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson and Joseph Benavidez.
Penick's Analysis: It's a solid boost from west coast and overrun viewership, more of one than the UFC got last December as that started with a higher overnight number. That's to be expected when nearly the entirety of the night's lengthy main event wasn't accounted for in the overnight numbers. The peak number is solid, but still well down from many of their Fox cards.
