Most Finishes in a UFC Event

About This Board

Every UFC card ranked by how many of its bouts ended inside the distance — knockouts, technical knockouts and submissions added together. The chips under each event split that total into knockouts (KO) and submissions (SUB), and the small figure under the total is how many bouts on the card had a result.

Two cards on the same number are ranked by how much of the card they finished, so a night that went eleven for eleven sits above one that went eleven for fourteen. Cancelled bouts never count against a card, and a card that is still being fought fills in as its results arrive.

The tournament era

The first UFC nights were one-night tournaments: no judges, at first no time limits, and the same fighters fighting three or four times before the night was out. Almost every bout ended in a finish, which is why a handful of cards from 1994 to 1999 sit high on the all-time list. They are marked Tournament. To compare modern cards only, choose a recent decade in the filters.
