Conor McGregor left UFC 264 with a broken leg and a loss on his record but his status as the biggest draw in combat sports remains untouched.
After UFC President Dana White teased UFC 264 as one of the highest selling pay-per-view cards the company has ever promoted, the initial numbers for the event now back up that statement.
According to a report from the Sports Business Journal, the event headlined by McGregor and Dustin Poirier in the main event sold 1.8 million pay-per-views globally, which would make that the second-highest selling card in UFC history.
