Dana White announced that UFC 84 raked in 3.7 million in live gate revenue. The announced attendance of 14,733 people generated the revenue, which is the forth highest MMA live gate take in Nevada state history.
The numbers, while strong, are a little more than a million under what UFC 79 (4.9 million) did on New Years Eve '07, but did much better than UFC 81 which made 2.4 million in live gate revenue.
Awards:
Wanderlei Silva was awarded the "Knockout of the Night" for his impressive first-round knockout of Keith Jardine -- $75,000
Rousimar Palhares earned "Submission of the Night" after applying an armbar against fellow brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioner Ivan Salaverry -- $75,000
Goran Reljic defeated Wilson Gouveia to secure the "Fight of the Night" -- $75,000
