Each UFC fight is divided into 5-minute rounds (3 rounds in non-title fights; 5 in title fights). Victories can occur by knockout, technical knockout (referee intervention), submission or judges' decision — unanimous, split or majority.
Weight classes are another crucial point. Currently, the UFC has 12 divisions, from women's strawweight (52,1 kg) to heavyweight (120,2 kg). Knowing the champions of each category, such as Jon Jones (heavyweight) and Alexandre Pantoja (flyweight), helps to contextualize the rivalries and rankings.
Tips for deepening your knowledge about the UFC

– Track the fighters' records : Recent winning or losing streaks, like those of Jon Jones , indicate performance trends.
Who to follow and how to better understand the UFC
