UFC Stats 2022 Review: Women’s bantamweight division
A look at the stats, facts, figures and numbers from the UFC’s women’s bantamweight division in 2022
The final UFC event of 2022 — UFC Vegas 66 — took place on December 17 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. That facility also hosted the first UFC fight card of the year, UFC Vegas 46. In all, the UFC staged 42 fight cards in 2022, with a total fight count of 511.
The UFC women’s bantamweight division was not particularly busy this year, with just 15 women’s 135-pound bouts taking place. That 15 bouts included a single title fight, the July 30 scrap that saw Amanda Nunes defeat Julianna Pena via decision at UFC 277. The win put the title back in the hands of Nunes after Pena scored an upset submission win over Nunes at UFC 269 in December 2011.
With the UFC on hiatus until UFC Vegas 67 takes place on January 14, 2023, at the UFC Apex, Bloody Elbow looks back at the stats, facts and figures from each UFC weight division in 2022.
Today, we look at the UFC’s women’s bantamweight division.
