UFC Vegas 116 tied the promotion's record for the most fights going to the judges' scorecards on a single event, with 11 of 13 bouts reaching a decision. The previous record was set at UFC 263, which was headlined by Israel Adesanya and Marvin Vettori. Only two finishes occurred on the card: a submission by McVay and a knockout by Spann. The post humorously suggested that those who chose sleep over watching the event made the right decision. The high number of decisions indicates a lack of finishes on the card.
