MMA Debates,
Settled With Data
Undefeated records, dream fights nobody got to see, and the primes that actually mattered. We run the numbers other people argue about, using the same engine that powers the 30-0 draft game.
Written by Harry Ali, who built the game.
Is a 30-0 Record Possible in MMA?
The greatest record in the sport's history is 29-0. We simulated millions of careers to find out what one more win would actually take, where unbeaten runs really die, and why the wall almost always arrives at fight 18.

Jones, GSP, Khabib or Silva? The honest case for each, plus an interactive GOAT builder where your own weightings crown the king. Four presets, four different GOATs.

Not a draw, a result wiped from the record. Why eye pokes and failed tests cause one, and the rule that decides NC vs technical decision. Includes a result decider.
What Is a Catchweight in MMA?
An agreed weight between divisions, usually because somebody missed weight. The penalty, why no belt can change hands, and a weigh-in checker.

Ranked by dread, not greatness. Fedor's decade-long aura, prime Silva's untouchability, Khabib's maul and Ngannou's one-punch terror.
KO vs TKO: The Actual Difference
A KO is when a fighter is knocked unconscious. A TKO is when the fight is stopped while they are still conscious but cannot continue. The clean answer, with examples.
The Best Martial Art for Self-Defence
Ranked by what protects an ordinary person, not what wins in a cage. The undefeated technique is a door; after that, boxing, wrestling and the arts that actually spar.

The most taught submission in grappling, broken into five animated steps: trap the wrist, make the angle, leg over the head, break the grip, lift the hips. Interactive diagram included.
Boxer vs MMA Fighter: Who Actually Wins?
The eternal argument, settled by thirty years of real crossover fights: the one-gloved boxer at UFC 1, Toney tapping in a round, a nine-second boxer's KO, and the rules that pick the winner.
