  List of UFC events - Wikipedia List of UFC events From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search All UFC events see fighters compete inside the "Octagon" This is a list of events held and scheduled by the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), a mixed martial arts promotion based in the United States. UFCs first event, UFC 1, took place on November 12, 1993. Each UFC event contains several fights. Traditionally, five fights take place on the televised main card, whilst others are held on the unaired preliminary portion[1] and are also aired on the live broadcast if time permits.[2] Occasionally, the UFC holds a live "UFC Prelim" show, prior to their pay-per-view events, which airs at least two of the event's preliminary fights live on Spike TV.[3] As of UFC 100, typically, most UFC events have held 11 fights in total at each event,[4][5] though sometimes there can be more than 11[6] or less,[7] due to last-minute injuries.[8] Prior to UFC 83, it was common to see 9 fights per event take place. UFC events are separated into four different formats: * "Numbered" events, such as UFC 100 that are mostly sold on pay-per-view. * "The Ultimate Fighter Finale" events, such as The Ultimate Fighter: Team GSP vs. Team Koscheck Finale, which air for free on Spike TV and are based around the final of The Ultimate Fighter series tournament.[9] * "Ultimate Fight Night Live" events, such as UFC Fight Night: Marquardt vs. Palhares, which also air for free on Spike TV and are often used as the lead-in broadcast for season premieres of The Ultimate Fighter.[10] * "UFC Live on Versus" events, such as UFC Live: Vera vs. Jones, which air for free on Versus.[11] Many of the "numbered" events have taken place on pay-per-view, though there have been a few exceptions for reasons such as tape-delay. Events such as UFC 72, which took place in Belfast, Northern Ireland were sold on pay-per-view, but due to tape-delay, purchase rates were not as high as events that aired at a traditional starting time.[12] UFC 72 had a buyrate of 200,000 viewers; a figure so low that it would not be matched as of October 2010.[12] As such, many events taking part in significantly different timezones, such as UFC 120 in England, have been aired for free in the U.S. on Spike TV.[13] In July 2009, the UFC held its unofficial 100th "numbered event". However, officially, despite being called UFC 100, it was actually the 101st due to UFC 37.5. The UFC signed a deal with Fox Sports Net, after Fox agreed to broadcast one fight in June 2002, during its "All-Star Summer" that month.[14] UFC 37 and 38 had already been scheduled and promoted, but as UFC 38 was the promotion's debut in England, they created UFC 37.5; an event that became the first ever mixed martial arts fight available on cable television.[14] As of UFC Fight Night: Nogueira vs. Davis, which took place on March 26, 2011, there have been 173 UFC events held in 68 cities, within ten countries and 29 U.S. states or territories.
