The UFC 115 pay-per-view took in a gate of $4,221,787 on June 12 from the GM Place in Vancouver, British Colombia, Canada, according to official figures from the Vancouver Athletic Commission (VAC) released today.

The final attendance of 17,669 was a result of 14,621 tickets sold and 3,048 tickets given away (comp/suite).

Despite pre-event speculation that sales (and resales) were choppy, just 138 tickets remained unsold.

The UFC dished out $1.285 million in fighter salaries for the live event and another $340,000 in additional bonus money for the four participants who delivered outstanding performances.

"Liddell vs. Franklin" featured what may have been the swan song for Chuck Liddell as opponent Rich "Ace" Franklin stopped "The Iceman" cold in the first round of their main event attraction.

Famed heavyweight veteran Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic won back-to-back fights inside the Octagon for the first time in his career when he submitted hard-hitting striker Pat "HD" Barry.
