Last Saturday's UFC Fight Night 58 event drew 966,000 viewers to Fox Sports 1.
The Lyoto Machida vs. C.B. Dollaway headlined card peaked during the 62-second main event, with 1,237,000 viewers catching Machida's brutal body kick TKO over Dollaway. The average for the card is down from Machida's last FS1 headliner, as his fight with Gegard Mousasi earlier this year brought in more than 1.4 million average viewers; however, that card had a significant lead-in from a live NASCAR race.
The preliminary card on Saturday night from Barueri, Sao Paulo, Brazil, drew 626,000 viewers.
