Let's Start It off Easy
1 of 20In the very first UFC, one competitor had a tooth knocked out. Whose tooth was knocked out and how was it knocked out?
Teila Tuli, Round Kick to the Face
2 of 20Sumo wrestler Teila Tuli fought Savate practitioner Gerard Gordeau in the very first fight in UFC history. After rushing Gordeau and falling, Tuli was the unfortunate recipient of a round kick straight to the face, which sent one of his teeth flying.
Who Am I?
3 of 20My only losses have come in the UFC and Pride.
One of the only two fighters to beat me also beat Anderson Silva.
My last fight was before 2000.
Who am I?
Emmanuel Yarborough!

Mistaken Milestone
5 of 20The UFC's debut on FOX is touted as a major milestone. However, they aren't the first MMA promotion to deal with FOX. Which promotion dealt with them first?
The International Fight League!
6 of 20The International Fight League or IFL didn't have a deal on FOX but they had one on FOX Sports Net (FSN) back in 2007, making them the first promotion to deal with FOX in any capacity.
Can You Guess?
7 of 20Of all the commentators in the Pre-Zuffa UFC days, which (if any) have had a fight in MMA?
Kathy Long
8 of 20Famed women's kickboxing champion Kathy Long was one of three commentators for UFC 1. In 2009, Long finally transitioned over to mixed martial arts and won her debut via unanimous decision.
Who Are These Fighters?
9 of 20All three of these men are or have been employed with the UFC at some point, but one of them hasn't fought for the company yet.
All three of these men have fought in Strikeforce back when it was just a kickboxing promotion. One of them has wins over the other two.
Who are these men?
Cung Le, Brian Ebersole and Shonie Carter
10 of 20Ebersole and Le are currently signed with the UFC and Carter used to be a regular with the promotion. However, Le has yet to make is debut in the Octagon.
Le also beat Ebersole and Carter in kickboxing matches under the Strikeforce banner.

Who is this?
Clay French!
12 of 20Clay French has put together a 19-6 stint in MMA (with a win over Mac Danzig and fights against Shinya Aoki and Rory Macdonald) while being handicapped by a glass eye.
Behind the Numbers
13 of 20UFC 100 was widely celebrated since it represented a huge milestone for both the UFC and MMA as a whole.
However, the event wasn't the 100th put on by the UFC. Counting every UFC event ever held (pay-per-views, fight nights, etc.), what event was actually the 100th held by the UFC?
UFC 78: Validation
14 of 20UFC 78 was actually the 100th event ever held by the UFC. Due to "Ultimate Ultimate" events, UFC fight nights and other such irregularities in event numbering, the count got skewed and UFC 78 was actually the 100th event while UFC 100 was the promotions 133rd show.
Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?
15 of 20Which former UFC champion's brother made his debut (and only UFC fight) at the oddly-named UFC 37.5?
Matt Serra's!
16 of 20Matt Serra's brother Nick Serra made his only Octagon appearance at UFC 37.5 against Nuri Shakir in a losing effort.

Masakatsu Funaki
18 of 20Japanese professional wrestling star and Pancrase founder Masakatsu Funaki is the only fighter to have ever beaten both Shamrock brothers and Dutch MMA legend Bas Rutten.
Three's a Crowd
19 of 20UFC legend Don Frye has had thirty fights in his career, but three of them were against the same man. Who was this man?
Mark Hall
20 of 20Unfortunate traditional martial artist Mark Hall was beaten three times by Don Frye, the third time under questionable circumstances.
So how did you do? Did you prove yourself to be one of the most knowledgeable MMA fans or a lowly "TUF noob"?
