Fastest belt loss in UFC?

[Calipwnia]

i hope GSP breaks this record also. It was fun pretending that GSP would have this amazing MW run but he was never up for it.

In before 13 seconds.

 

[Psychojoe86]

Meaning shortest title reigns?

How far apart was Belfort losing to couture?

Also Germaine de ramady stripped pretty fast

 

[davidlemonparty]

What's the current record? GDR?

In before 13 seconds.

I was implying how many days they were "champ" before being stripped or losing the belt in a fight.

Carla Esparza had her belt for 92 days before losing it to Jedrzejczyk.

That's the *second shortest title reign in UFC history.

Edit: Since posting this one hour ago, we have a new shortest title reign in UFC history:

Georges St-Pierre as the Middleweight Champion - 33 days. Vacated due to illness.

Josh Barnett tested positive and was stripped 1 month after winning the UFC HW title.

I could be wrong, but I think that's the shortest.

Josh Barnett tested positive and was stripped 1 month after winning the UFC HW title.

I could be wrong, but I think that's the shortest.

He won it in March and was stripped in July of 02, a span of 126 days, according to my data.

First source I could find: https://www.newsday.com/sports/mixe...pions-heavyweight-division-history-1.12082979

"At UFC 36 on March 22, 2002, Josh Barnett was able to out-wrestle Couture in the second round of their title bout and finish the champion with strikes for the TKO. Barnett was named champion, but he failed a post-fight drug test for anabolic steroids and was stripped of the belt in July of that year before leaving the UFC to fight in Japan."

I know. I figured the first response would be someone gobbling Irish dong.

I thought it was a month, but you could be right. I'm going off ancient memory

Jon Jones beating DC and then getting stripped. Thats the record

 

[TheChance]

Jon "Turinabol" Jones

 

[oldschoolmmafan]

[McGeezle]

Eddie Alvarez to Ngannou in less than an hour

 

[Katsumi Yamada]

Jon Jones beating DC and then getting stripped. Thats the record

That title reign is not recognised though and the fight is changed to a no contest, unlike Barnett and his victory over Randy for some reason.

Why is everyone avoiding the answer the shortest reign is GSPs middleweight one. November 4 - December 7. Thats shorter than Jon Jones, GDR, Josh Barnett, just face it its the shortest one.
