It would be the largest number since UFC 168, also headlined by Weidman and Rousey, that was one of the few shows in UFC history to do in the 1 million buy category.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Weidman retained his title in the July 5 main event from Las Vegas, with a five-round win over Lyoto Machida in one of the year&#8217;s most exciting fights. Rousey ran through Alexis Davis in 16 seconds, which tied for the second-fastest title fight in UFC history. The show did slightly above most expectations going in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; When it comes to PPV buy rates we never really get disclosed true and accurate figures.
