Lesser known UFC stats

[Bearknuckle]

I just had an idea for a thread. What are some lesser know facts and stats in the UFC. I’d love to see what you guys discovered on your own.

Alexander Gustaffson is 3-7 in the last 10 years. He fought for the title 3 times losing all 3, but 2 of his 3 wins in that timespan are Glover and Jan who both became champs. Talk about wrong place wrong time and bad luck.

what are some you guys discovered on your own?

As of February 2022, there are five fighters who share the record for the most KO/TKO losses in UFC. Gabriel Gonzaga, Frank Mir, Alistair Overeem, Stefan Struve and Donald Cerrone have each assembled eight knockout losses, all tied for the most in the UFC.

Question rather than a stat...There is a thread about Alex Caceres saying he would like to fight Yair Rodriguez for the belt, sure he just got ranked #15 so with a few wins it could happen for him, he already has 13 loses, which is the champion with the most loses by the time they got the belt?

Robbie Lawler had 10, anyone had more?

Erik Silva was the youngest fighter to ever fight in the UFC for many years

Conor Mcgregor has the highest KO %

OSP has four Von Flue choke wins (all in the UFC), and that's twice more than Jason Von Flue has (one in UFC and one on WEC)

Joe Lauzon is the only TUF competitor to beat the coach of that season before joining the cast (against Jens Pulver at UFC 63)

Despite his nickname "Hands of Stone", Sam Stout only has one KO/TKO win in the UFC.

But what a KO that was though

Frankie Edgar had 3 championship fights in a row and lost all 3 fights, Rematches and coming off a loss and fighting for a championship is nothing new

"The Octagon" is so named because it has 8 sides.

Not to be confused with the octopus, which only has 2 sides.

I just looked, Andrei Arlovski joined the 8 KO/TKO loss list just this past weekend, after Don'tale Mayes KO'd him. That's not even counting his 3 combined KO/TKOs in Affliction/Strikeforce in between UFC stints. If we're still lumping Strikeforce and WEC stats with UFC stats, Arlovski is the all time leader with 10. The Fedor KO in Affliction being the one not included.
