Another batch of fighters you’ve never heard of with quite an amazing distinction!
Longest Undefeated Streak – Added to the Records & Stats
With more to come….
MMA Records & Stats Page Available!
Check it out here.
We’ll be improving on this page in the near future.
MMA Statistics page coming soon
Shortly, we’ll be debuting a page that will focus on objective statistics that, for the most part, are independent of the rating system. We’ll start with records such as most wins, most fights, most wins without a loss (active streak) and maybe one or two more.
We’ll be looking for more ideas for statistics along these lines, so please feel free to throw your ideas our way.
Will Fedor eventually regain his MMA dominance?
A historical approximation of Fedor’s divisional dominance rating since mid-2003.
The Importance of a proposed GSP/Silva match-up
Georges St. Pierre vs. Anderson Silva would most certainly pair up the top two pound-for-pound fighters in the sport, barring another big win by Cain Velasquez, or a surprise by Jake Shields.
Since our site only started about 3 years ago, I created a procedure which acts as a good approximation of our Top 10 division dominance list, back to the beginning of MMA history.
Only once before would our #1 have faced our #2, and that match ended by no contest (Fedor Emelianenko vs. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira II). Let’s not hope for a repeat! For the record, Wanderlei Silva inched ahead of these two, and took #1 on the list prior to their 3rd matchup, only to be beaten shortly after by Mark Hunt.
Furthermore, its also important (and amazing) to mention that Georges St. Pierre has never fought above the Welterweight limit, not even pre-UFC, which makes the proposed battle even more tremendous.
Stat of the Day: Career Brazilians’ success once in Zuffa
Over the last several years, with seemingly increasing frequency, Zuffa has made an increased effort to invite Brazilian prospects straight from their homeland (or elsewhere) into the UFC (or previously, the WEC).
Our counts show 31 Brazilians who had fought previously, but never in the USA, then had their first match with either the UFC or WEC, since late 2004.
Prior to Zuffa: 361-47-4 (.876 Win %)
First Match in Zuffa: 15-16 (.484 Win %)
Future Matches in Zuffa: 54-36 (.600 Win %)
These statistics suggest that the Brazilians were “thrown to the wolves” and/or got a big shock when facing top-notch talent. However, either by more friendly matchmaking, or simply by adjustment, they did fairly well afterwards.
