Could a UFC pay-per-view ever reach 5 million buys?

Let's say that Joe Silva and Dana White decide to make a ''Super Card.'' Would 5 million people buy this card?

Silva vs Jones

JDS vs Cain

Lesnar vs Cormier\Mir winner

GSP vs Nick Diaz

Aldo vs Edgar

Sonnen vs Evans

Shogun vs Machida

Hughes vs BJ Penn (For name reconigtion more than anything)

    hmm, replace Cain with Alistair Overeem. include all current champions in a fight. Imagine all championships on the line in a single pay-per-view. Now that is what would make a super card. Not just fighters who are not fighting for the title

    Pretty much every pay-per-view for the last 5 yrs is well over 5 M. You realized to make 5 M you only need a little over 100,000 viewers.
