The UFC is now two events into 2023. For this coming year, our plan is to do an event-by-event look back after every card, along with keeping a running total of pertinent UFC statistics on the year. Below is the post-UFC 283 update for data in 2023.
So far we’ve had 26 fights, with ten bouts going to decision and sixteen finishing inside the distance. That includes two rear naked chokes, a doctor’s stoppage, and two body shot KOs. Light Heavyweight and bantamweight have seen the most bouts so far in 2023, and we’re already running up toward 3,000 significant strikes landed.
