The Ultimate Fighting Championship has the sport concept of fight formats with three rounds which last five minutes each for regular bouts and five rounds lasting 5 minutes for championship bouts. Ultimate Fighting Championship fighters are always called true athletes because they must grasp their respective art as well as possess such qualities as strength, stamina, strategy, intelligence, and speed.

UFC is a so-called mixed martial arts organization that is based in the United States. It is situated in Las Vegas, Nevada and Zuffa, LLC is the one to own and operate the organization. Started as a tournament to point out the world's best fighters of different styles it was based upon Brazilian vale tudo fighting where the fighting itself was often brutal. Only after the organization reformed itself, the rules became stricter and UFC could market itself as a legal sporting event.
