Fighters with the Most Wins in UFC History

Posted on December 24, 2020 by A. J. Riot

It sounds odd, but not nearly enough time is devoted to talking about the UFC greats. Everything seems rooted in the here and now, with an heavier emphasis on future fights, while everything that’s already happened falls by the wayside, except for brief mentions when discussing someone’s resume.

There’s no clear-cut explanation for this phenomenon. Part of it is definitely because the UFC is still in its infancy relative to other sports leagues. It didn’t start until 1993, and it has only really become ultra-popular since the turn of the millennium. Another potential reason is the scarcity of matchups. Fighters are scheduling bouts every other week, so even the longest-tenured UFC participants have a finite sample size under their belts.

And finally, let’s not neglect the financial aspect: Everyone cares about the upcoming fight most because that’s the one they can order on pay-per-view and place wagers on. Only a handful of sports in North America are more popular when it comes to that, and it’s become an incredibly lucrative industry. Why, sports betting in California alone is projected to be worth $2.5 billion per year. And that’s just one state. People love to wager on sports that don’t take place every day. That’s why, like college football and the NFL, the UFC takes center stage when it comes to looking at upcoming events rather than past ones. It also helps that virtually every new fight is either a title fight or a bout that will determine who gets the next shot at a title matchup.

Make no mistake, though, the UFC has officially been around long enough that it’s put together a colorful history. Plenty of those who have set foot in the octagon are worthy of being considered among the sport’s all-time greats. And while there’s no one way to identify them, it makes sense to start with the fighters who have racked up the most victories in UFC history.

Donald Cerrone (23 victories)

Let’s just say the 37-year-old Donald Cerrone, who was formerly a professional kickboxer, has been around the UFC for quite some time. And he has the resume to prove it.

Not only does he hold the all-time record for victories, but he has also fought in more bouts (35) and owns more finishes (16) than anyone else. And guess what? He’s not done yet. His last fight came in September 2020, and he very much plans to keep going.

Felder/dos Anjos – Split Decision?!

Posted on November 15, 2020 by Jason

50-45, 50-45, 47-48

The odd decision of Felder/dos Anjos surfaced some questions on how to handle split decisions where there is one super obvious outlier. Do you respect that all judges have an equal say? Do you take the one in the middle (median)? Something else?

Let’s take a look at the effects of Felder’s rating in the various systems — dos Anjos switched divisions, while Felder remained at 155, which makes him a better subject for this within the standard system.

System	Win Weights	Pre-Fight	Post-Fight	Diff
Fight Matrix “Standard”	72 (90,97)	427	427	=
ELO “K170”	100 (100,100)	1909	1828	-81
ELO “Modified”	67 (100,100)	1929	1894	-35
Glicko-1	55 (91,91)	1985	1967	-18
WHR	69 (88,99)	1839	1819	-20

The win weights list three weights (the “power” of a win out of 100) for:

The actual fight.
The fight if it were scored 49-46 x3 UD (average).
The fight if it were scored 50-45 x3 UD (majority & median).

In all systems but the standard, Felder lost points. OK, if we are to get technical, Felder lost 0.0051 points in the standard system, but that had nothing to do with the fight itself. The standard and the WHR systems were the least affected by this egregious error.
