Whats the shortest notice a fighter has taken a fight and won?

[mb23100]

I seem to remember Brenneman taking a fight against (Story?) and winning on pretty short notice. Anyone know what the shortest was?

It'll probably be that.

Pretty broad question. Are you talking about UFC Title fights? All UFC fights? All MMA fights ever?


I think Nate Diaz destroying McGregor was one of the bigger "short notice" wins.

Bisping vs Rockhold 2 was pretty short notice from what I remember..

 

[Nihongi]

Leben beat Aaron Simpson and Sexyama like 2 weeks apart.

Petruzelli

 

[HaulParris]

Had to research a little bit, best I could find was Seth-Kimbo (RIP).

EDIT: post above me beat me to it. Respect @Fluffernutter

It would've been Michael Johnson second win over Ferguson if Ferguson accepted the fight

 

[Fluffernutter]

Although he lost, Tim Tomashek literally came out of the audience to boxing Tommy Morrison during an ESPN fight years ago.

Tommy's original opponent wouldn't come out of the locker room, so they asked over the PA system if there was a licensed heavyweight in the crowd.

Ken Shamrock vs Kimbo Slice fell through the first time on the night of the actual event. Ken Shamrock received a cut to the face while warming up so he was replaced by Seth Petruzelli who was called up from the prelims.
This was during the time that Kimbos popularity and invincible aura was at an all time high with the general public. This was the first mma event televised on national tv so it was huge.
long ass story short, petruzelli knockouts Kimbo with a jab, and the corrupt organization known as Elite XC folded that same night. that's the shortest notice I've seen in mma.

Check out youtube, it's in there.

Best part was telling Seth not to take Kimbo down. Uh, ok.
