Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) has had witnessed several veteran fighters who have gone on to make it big inside the octagon. UFC is notably the biggest MMA promotion in the world, and as an organization, it has attained a lot of milestones.

Over the years, UFC has managed to stage itself globally with the emergence of household names like Conor McGregor and Ronda Rousey and continues to rule amongst the global audiences with their rising popularity.

Meanwhile, UFC commentators expectedly add some more ‘thrill’ to the sport, something that often goes unnoticed. Apart from the fighters, UFC as an organization has produced some popular personalities who are well known amongst the MMA fan base.
