UFC president recently revealed that UFC 254 was on track to be the most successful PPV event of all time. This title is currently held by the UFC 229 card headlined by Conor and Khabib. If Khabib and Justin were to break this record, it would be huge not only for the promotion but also both fighters involved as well.
