Famous Fighter Nationality Infographics

In the World of UFC, Where Do the Most Fighters Originate?

— February 17, 2013 — Lifestyle
This infographic looks at the world of UFC to determine where the fighters actually come from. The most successful country at producing UFC fighters is the United States, which is no surprise since the UFC started in that country and does most of its business there.

Across all weight classes (flyweight, bantamweight, featherweight, lightweight, welterweight, middleweight, light-heavyweight and heavyweight) Brazil consistently produces the second most fighters in the world of UFC. The number of fighters from Brazil doesn't exactly compete with the United States in terms of volume of fighters, but it does have a high proportion of the top ten fighters in the world.

And according to this infographic, Canada ranks third out of dozens of countries.
Trend Themes
1. Country of Origin Dominance - The dominance of the United States in producing UFC fighters presents opportunities for international countries to develop their own fighting talent and potentially disrupt the industry.
2. Brazil's Top Ten Fighter Ratio - The high proportion of top ten fighters from Brazil signifies an opportunity for the Brazilian MMA industry to capitalize on their talent and propel themselves as a major player in the industry.
3. Emerging Canadian Fighters - The rise of Canadian fighters presents an opportunity for Canada to further develop its MMA industry and become a contender in the world of UFC.
Industry Implications
1. International Fight Promotions - With the dominance of the United States in producing fighters, there is an opportunity for international fight promotions to emerge and disrupt the industry by showcasing homegrown talent from various countries.
2. Brazilian MMA - Brazil has a strong representation of top ten fighters, making it an opportune time for the Brazilian MMA industry to invest in training facilities, promotions, and talent scouting to solidify their position in the market.
3. Canadian MMA - The emerging talent from Canada presents an opportunity for the Canadian MMA industry to invest in training programs, local promotions, and talent development initiatives to establish themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the UFC.
