Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 47 in Bangor, Maine may not have been a star studded card, but the event managed to draw decent ratings all things considered.

The card, which was headlined by a light-heavyweight bout between Ryan Bader and Ovince St. Preux, reportedly drew 735,000 viewers for FOX Sports 1 (figures via MMA Fighting.com).

Those numbers surpass what the last Saturday night card broadcast pulled for FOX Sports 1, which was UFC FN 44. The “Swanson vs. Stephens” event on June 28th drew 702,000 viewers.

Bader went on to score a unanimous decision win over St. Preux in the UFC FN 47 headliner. In the co-main event, Ross Pearson stopped Gray Maynard.
