They just didn't make the right call saying they were going to sell 70,000 tickets.

70,000 is literally impossible in that stadium. But I guess if they did say that, then your statement is true

Apparently the Vegas sportsbooks got crushed badly. They lost all the money they made from College Football that day. The only sportsbook that did OK was the golden nugget, aafter they decided to accept a few very large bets on Rousey.

How does this work? Don't sportsbooks get crushed when all of the favorites win?

Not entirely. Ronda was at one point -2000 and Holly was +1000. So if a sportsbook took in $1,000,000 on Ronda at -2000 they would have only been on the hook for $50,000 in payouts. But if they took in $1,000,000 on Holly at +1000 they would be on the hook for $10,000,000 in payouts.

Except if they took $1,000,000 on Holly at +1000, that same bookmaker would have taken $100,000,000 on Ronda otherwise the odds wouldn't have been what they were.
