UFC Fight Night 45 draws 4,115 attendance

ATLANTIC CITY – Wednesday’s UFC Fight Night 45 event drew an announced attendance of 4,115, though UFC officials said a live gate figure was not available immediately following the card.

UFC Senior Director of Public Relations Dave Sholler announced the tally at the post-fight press conference for UFC Fight Night 45, which took place at Revel Casino Hotel in Atlantic City. The bulk of the card aired on FOX Sports 1 following a single prelim on UFC Fight Pass.

The New Jersey State Athletic Control Board should have official figures available in the next week.

In UFC Fight Night 45's main event, local fighter Jim Miller started quickly but ultimately succumbed to a second-round barrage of strikes from Donald Cerrone, including a brutal high kick that sealed the stoppage.

UFC Fight Night 45 was the eighth UFC show in Atlantic City and 15th in New Jersey. While most of the events have been pay-per-view offerings, Wednesday’s show was third non-PPV card in the state.

The all-time list includes:

• UFC on FOX 3 (IZOD Center in East Rutherford, N.J.): 10,788 attendance and $1.1 million gate
• UFC on FX 4 (Revel Casino Hotel in Atlantic City): 4,652 attendance and $1.3 million gate
