Clay Guida has wins over a former pride champion, a former Strikeforce champion, a former WEC champion and a former UFC champion.

Gomi, Thomson, Pettis and Dos Anjos.

That's pretty insane. I wish Clay, pre-Maynard, had won some UFC gold

In 12 fights under Zuffa, Cruz has never scored a knock down.

 

[HIMBOB]

Interesting. Certainly looks like he goes down. Any idea why it wasn't counted?

Edit: just rewatched it, scottie touches the ground with his left hand but doesn't go down. Awesome fight though.

Fyi: first min of round 3.

 

[BC]

Not a record. So did Barao

Never said it was a record. These are all just random facts.

Probably some weird technicality. I watched that fight I'm quite sure it was a knock down.

Gerard Gordeau competed in UFC 1 and made it to the final, but he wasn't their first choice. He only participated because he was from the same gym as the man the originally wanted to compete: Ernesto Hoost. The UFC couldn't afford him, so they went with Gordeau.

Where did you get the statistic from? UFC? They have a habit of being less than accurate.

Think of the scenario where Hoost would have fought... that would have been weird.

I've always wondered how they establish their statistics. The whole "significant strikes" is also pretty iffy.

Kurt angle tried out for TUF 10 but failed the medicals

Totally agree but i figured kd would be easy to judge.

Would love to see another angle.
