As UFC 108 filled to roll of Zuffa's traditional end of the year "mega" event and it is important to draw comparisons to other end of the year cards. In that spirit UFC 108 didn't measure up to Zuffa's previous end of the year "mega" events.

At the end of 2008 UFC 92 was also held in the MGM Grand Garden Arena and drew 14,103 attendees for a live gate of $3.47 million (over 4,000 tickets were comps). The 2007 end of the year event was UFC 79, which was held in the Mandalay Bay, drew an attendance of 9,704 spectators for a gate of $4.99 million.
