UFC 306 went down this Saturday, and it was the most expensive event the promotion has ever put on given the production demands of the Sphere in Las Vegas. It was an ambitious move by the UFC, and Dana White hyped it up to be the greatest sporting event ever.

Before UFC 306, the current UFC live gate record was held by UFC 205 ($17.7 million). The next two highest events are UFC 229 ($17,188,895) and UFC 300 ($16,508,823).
