Your reason?

I watch a lot of sports.
I never watch WNBA. It's popular though.
I hate MMA/UFC. I have never watched more than a few seconds. I never will. I have to admit it's popular.
Neither are terrible products, as much as I dislike them, MMA in particular.
WNBA:
Television Viewership & Ratings: Television viewership for the WNBA has reached historic heights.Average Viewership: The league is averaging 756,000 viewers across its major media partners. This marks a 15% increase over last year's record-setting metrics.
Massive Audience Peaks: Dueling networks are drawing massive numbers, frequently crossing the million-viewer threshold. By mid-season, 29 different games averaged over 1 million viewers (compared to just 11 games during the entire previous year).
Record Game Metrics: High-profile games frequently rival men's sports ratings. For instance, a recent matchup between the Indiana Fever and Minnesota Lynx averaged 2.52 million viewers on ABC, peaking at 3.1 million.
Total Reach: The league reached over 73 million unique viewers across national broadcasts by its mid-season break, entirely eclipses the 63 million unique viewers recorded across the entire previous season.
