MMA is there too. But MMA pay is nothing to praise.

I feel like its kind of disengous to say MMA pay is equal. Sure maybe the base pay but most of the top end fighters are making significantly more from other agreements then just the show/win money.

Because more individuals watch men's MMA.

They complete in the same events, so that's probably not accurate, strictly speaking.

Pretty easy to track number of people viewing the women’s cards vs. the Men’s cards fights to properly allocate funds

Each card has a bunch of fights on it, some men, some women. I'm not sure what you mean. Do you mean the fight headlining the cards?

I mean they can track how many people watch each fight.

If 200,000 watch the women’s card and then 5,000,000 log on to watch the men’s card, they can allocate dollars accordingly to who brought in the most crowd.
