Most UFC fights per year

Career bouts divided by career span — fight frequency in the phrasing people actually use.

How this is measured

Career bouts divided by the span from first fight to last. It measures the same thing as the gap board and will mostly agree with it, but it is the phrasing people reach for — "he fights three times a year" — and it handles a career that started fast and slowed down more gently than a median does. Requires 12 bouts.

Counted from official UFCStats results, UFC bouts only. The one-night tournament format ran until 1999 and let a fighter compete three times in an evening; the toggle above removes it rather than blending it in.

By division

The same measure inside each weight class, all-time. Useful because the cross-division list above skews to the divisions that simply run the most cards.
