UFC White House Event Reaches 34 Million Viewers as Spain and France Reports Remain Pending

Summary
An estimated 34 million people worldwide watched UFC’s June 14 White House event, putting it among the promotion’s highest-watched global shows.
The tally is still incomplete because Spain and France have not yet reported viewership, with those figures expected in mid-July and likely to lift the total further.
Seventeen million of the audience came from the United States and Latin America, while the latest global update added Australia, China, India, South Korea, New Zealand and the U.K.
Spain and France matter especially because Spain’s Ilia Topuria headlined the card and France’s Ciryl Gane fought in the co-main event.
The event’s sporting centerpiece saw Justin Gaethje knock out the previously unbeaten Topuria to become undisputed lightweight champion.
