While the #UFCDeal is huge, @CBSSports still pays more than 2x for the @NFL on a per broadcast basis. Despite @ufc's impressive leap, a gap persists between the @NFL and other sports properties in terms of the value they can deliver per timeslot, @Octagon analysis shows

The 2025 @Concacaf #GoldCup Final on FOX was the most-watched Gold Cup telecast in English-language U.S. history with 3.73 million viewers. The match peaked with 5.2 million viewers from 8:45p - 9p ET.





The MLS opener on #FOX received 284k viewers, which equals last year's opener. Noting that the @MLS openers on #FOX were also simulcast on @AppleTV and @FOXDeportes, it is nonetheless interesting to compare them to the FTA openers from various other leagues in 🇺🇸

The 🇨🇦 vs 🇺🇸 #4nationsfaceoff round robin game was viewed by 4.4m Americans on average, but viewership during each period was over 5 million. It highlights how the action on the ice boosted 📺 numbers, as viewership rose sharply during both the 1st and 3rd period @Octagon



The power of @NFL and its #SuperBowl. @Tubi is broadcasting it in 4K - the best subscription-free option to watch the SB. U.S. Google searches for Tubi have peaked the morning before the game. Interest is expected to peak higher, with Tubi also airing two ads during the game.
