This is a list of events held and scheduled by the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), a mixed martial arts promotion based in the United States. UFC's first event, ''UFC 1'', took place on November 12, 1993. Each UFC event contains several fights. Traditionally, every event starts off with a preliminary card followed by a main card, with the last fight being known as the main event. ==Overview== UFC events are separated into seven different formats: *"Numbered" events, currently airing on pay-per-view, with some exceptions *"UFC on Fox" events, currently airing on Fox *"Fight Night" events, formerly aired on Spike, currently airing on Fox Sports 1, Fox Sports 2 or UFC Fight Pass *"The Ultimate Fighter Finale" events, formerly aired on Spike and FX, currently airing on Fox Sports 1 or UFC Fight Pass *"UFC on FX" events, formerly aired on FX *"UFC on Fuel TV" events, formerly aired on Fuel TV *"UFC Live on Versus" events, formerly aired on Versus Most of the "numbered" events have taken place on pay-per-view, though there have been a few exceptions for reasons such as tape-delay. Events such as UFC 72, which took place in Belfast, Northern Ireland, U.K., were sold on pay-per-view, but due to tape-delay, purchase rates were not as high as events that aired at a traditional starting time.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Who is the biggest UFC PPV draw part 5 )〕 As such, events taking part in significantly different timezones, including UFC 70, UFC 75, UFC 89, UFC 95, UFC 105, UFC 120, UFC 122, and UFC 138, were given a same-night airing in American primetime on Spike TV.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Spike TV announces 8p.m. ET/PT start time for Saturday's UFC 120 event )〕 Historically, the UFC has also aired preliminary fights prior to the main fight cards, either on television via Spike, FX, and Fuel TV, or online via Facebook and YouTube. Beginning in August 2013, starting with UFC Fight Night: Shogun vs. Sonnen, the UFC began airing non-PPV events on either Fox Sports 1 or Fox Sports 2. In January 2014, as part of the organization's global expansion, the UFC began airing various international events exclusively on their subscription-based digital network, UFC Fight Pass. In July 2009, the UFC held its unofficial 100th "numbered event"; however, officially, despite being called UFC 100, it was actually the 101st numbered event (not to mention the 133rd event overall). The UFC signed a deal with Fox Sports Net, after Fox agreed to broadcast one fight in June 2002, during its "All-Star Summer" that month.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=UFC 37 (And 37.5, too) )〕 UFC 37 and 38 had already been scheduled and promoted, but as UFC 38 was the promotion's debut in the United Kingdom, they created UFC 37.5; an event that became the first ever mixed martial arts fight available on cable television.〔 As of UFC Fight Night: Henderson vs. Masvidal, which took place on November 28, 2015, there have been 340 UFC events held in 117 cities in 19 countries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of UFC events」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
