UFC Vegas 116 matched the promotional record for the most fights ending in judges' decisions, with eleven bouts going the distance. The record was previously set at UFC 263, headlined by Israel Adesanya versus Marvin Vettori. Only two finishes occurred on the card: Jackson McVay's submission victory and Ryan Spann's knockout win. The high number of decisions made for a grinding night of fights that tested viewer patience and stamina.
