Historic UFC Records Set

🔥

Promotional Records Established at UFC Fight Night: Blanchfield vs. Barber

Promotional Anomaly
Latest Walkout Main Event Shift

Mateusz Gamrot vs. Ludovit Klein became the latest-elevated headliner in modern UFC history when original main eventer Maycee Barber suffered a medical emergency minutes before scheduled walkouts.

Scheduling Landmark
Three-Round Non-Title Headliner

Because Gamrot vs. Klein was elevated on literal minutes’ notice from the main card, the bout remained an official three-round contest (3×5 min) rather than expanding to the traditional five rounds.

Striking Benchmark
Ardelean’s 352 Significant Strikes Thrown

Alice Ardelean threw 352 significant strikes (landing 154) across 15 minutes in a three-round victory over Rayanne dos Santos, setting a personal promotional output record and winning Fight of the Night.

Technical Submission
Leavitt 99-Second Anaconda Choke

Jordan Leavitt captured a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus by rendering Kurt Holobaugh unconscious via anaconda choke at 1:39 of Round 1, his fastest career promotional submission.

Submission Showcase
Brahimaj 6th Opening-Round Sub

Ramiz Brahimaj collected a $50,000 Performance of the Night award by submitting Billy Ray Goff with a guillotine choke at 3:16 of Round 1, logging his sixth career first-round finish.

Light Heavyweight Power
Jacoby 110-Second Knockout Blitz

Dustin Jacoby stopped Bruno Lopes via clean knockout punches in just 1:50 of Round 1, earning his fifth career first-round knockout stoppage under the Zuffa banner.

Pure Striking War
612 Combined Strikes / 0 Takedowns

Bolaji Oki and Michael Aswell combined for 612 total strikes and 254 significant strikes without initiating a single takedown attempt across their three-round lightweight war.

Control Dominance
Vieira’s 10:06 Mat Control Time

Ketlen Vieira controlled Macy Chiasson for 10 minutes and 6 seconds of their 15-minute contest, securing her 16th career victory across the featherweight and bantamweight divisions.

Lightweight Wrestling Run
Gamrot 6 Takedowns / 8:45 Control

Mateusz Gamrot executed six takedowns and registered 8:45 of control time against Ludovit Klein, sweeping all judges’ cards 30–27 to record his 26th professional MMA win.

Card Weight Shift
Featherweight Same-Day Elevation

The Vieira vs. Chiasson matchup was officially redesignated as a featherweight contest on weigh-in day due to weight-management issues, resulting in Vieira forfeiting 25% of her purse.

Opening-Round Front Chokes
Dual Technical Submissions

The card featured two separate first-round front-headlock technical submissions (Brahimaj’s guillotine and Leavitt’s anaconda), matching an APEX venue single-event benchmark.

Broadcast Titling Discrepancy
Dual Promotional Event Naming

Originally broadcast as UFC Fight Night: Blanchfield vs. Barber, official media archives also indexed the completed nine-bout event as UFC on ESPN: Gamrot vs. Klein (UFC on ESPN 68 / UFC Vegas 107).
