More on ‘Octagon Time’

Dec 21, 2012

We added another feature to our new Octagon Time page: longest & shortest average UFC fight time (minimum of 5 UFC bouts required).

Holding the record for the shortest average fight time is the UFC 1 veteran Pat Smith, who achieve a 4-2 record in the promotion while averaging a little over a minute per fight. On the other end of the spectrum is the current lightweight champion Benson Henderson. At a perfect 6-0 in UFC, all of his fights in the Octagon went the distance. Between three 3-rounders and three 5-rounders, this averages out to a hefty 20 minutes per fight.

Thanks to the Underground forum member ‘Narcolepsy’ for the suggestion!

Before asking where a specific fighter is ranked or why they aren't ranked:


- We update the rankings once per week, usually on Sunday or Monday.

- Fighters who have not fought in 450 days or more ARE NOT RANKED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

- Use the "Fighter Search" option in the upper-right of the page. The fighter may be ranked in a different division.

- Most of the divisions have multiple pages beyond this one. See the clickable ranges above and below the ranking table.

Furthermore, we do not maintain the "next fight" data. This is gathered from Sherdog. Any issues regarding this data should be forwarded to them.
