UFC FAQ

Who is the greatest UFC fighter of all time?

The debate usually centres on Jon Jones, Georges St-Pierre, Anderson Silva and Khabib Nurmagomedov, each with a claim built on dominance in their own era. There is no consensus, and stylistic preference tends to decide people's pick.

How much do UFC fighters earn?

Pay varies enormously. Headline stars can earn life-changing sums per fight through purses and pay-per-view points, while fighters lower down the card earn far more modest amounts. Sponsorships and crossover fame drive the biggest fortunes.

What is the difference between UFC and MMA?

MMA is the sport itself, mixed martial arts, combining striking and grappling disciplines. The UFC is simply the biggest promotion running MMA events, in the same way a league is not the sport it hosts.

What does pound-for-pound mean in the UFC?

Pound-for-pound rankings imagine all fighters as the same size, judging pure skill regardless of weight class. It is how fans and media compare a flyweight champion with a heavyweight one.

Know the Language

OctagonThe eight-sided cage in which UFC bouts take place, and shorthand for the promotion itself.

SubmissionWinning a fight by forcing the opponent to tap out, usually via a choke or joint lock.

TKOTechnical knockout, when the referee stops a fight because a fighter can no longer defend themselves.

Pound-for-poundA ranking of the best fighters regardless of weight class, judging skill rather than size.

Weight classThe divisions fighters compete in, from flyweight up to heavyweight, each with its own champion.
