Nick Diaz set a new record at UFC 137.
According to FightMetric, the official statistics gathering site of the UFC, Diaz now holds the record for ‘Most Significant Strikes’ landed in a single fight.
He landed a total of 178 ‘significant’ strikes on Penn over the course of their three round battle. Significant strikes are those that are judged to have landed with some degree of impact and so would not include, for example, a glancing blow to the midriff.
Earlier this month, Nam Phan became the new record holder after landing 174 such strikes on Leonard Garcia. Diaz has now beaten him by four strikes.
