While Strikeforce was forced to constantly shuffle fighters on the main card of the Aug. 15 event "Carano vs. Cyborg," the organization was still able to draw a strong attendance of 13,976 to HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif., for this past Saturday's Showtime-broadcast card.
The company also generated $735,710 in sales from the attendance, representing an average per ticket revenue of $52.64.
The attendance was down slightly from the 15,211 spectators that attended April's "Strikeforce: Shamrock vs. Diaz" event, Strikeforce's most recent trip to San Jose prior to "Carano vs. Cyborg." Company officials reported that April's event generated "approximately $750,000."
The attendance figure for "Carano vs. Cyborg" represents a drop of 8.12 percent from April's "Shamrock vs. Diaz."
"Carano vs. Cyborg" also drew 576,000 viewers on Showtime, the highest-rated mixed martial arts program to ever air on Showtime Networks according to Showtime officials
