Frequently Asked Questions

No. They are counted from the UFC bouts recorded on MMA.SOCIAL and recalculated after every event; the official record book is the UFC's own.
Our database focuses on UFC fights. A fighter's record here reflects their UFC career only, not fights in other promotions like Bellator, ONE, or regional circuits. This provides a consistent apples-to-apples comparison across all fighters.
Records are recalculated automatically after every UFC event. When fight results are recorded, all statistical categories update immediately, so you'll always see the most current record holders.
