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!
