UFC Belgrade Delivers Ten First-Round Finishes

UFC’s official results for the August 1, 2026, Belgrade card record ten first-round finishes. The figure reflects the complete event results, not only the main card, and the promotion’s scorecards provide the bout-by-bout record.

A high number of early endings

The event at Belgrade Arena included a series of opening-round stoppages. Among the best-known were Uroš Medić’s 30-second finish of Daniel Rodriguez and Navajo Stirling’s TKO of Jan Błachowicz at 2:56.

Other first-round results added to the count across the card. UFC’s result page is the reference for identifying which bouts ended before the second round, while the official scorecards help distinguish finishes from decisions.

Keeping the record precise

The first-round total should not be confused with the number of knockouts alone. Finishes can come by knockout, technical knockout or submission, and UFC’s event listing classifies each result individually.

The ten-finish count is therefore best presented as a card-wide statistic tied to the official record. Rakić’s unanimous decision over Tybura, for example, was one of the bouts that went the distance and is not part of the first-round finish total.

UFC counted the first-round finishes across preliminaries and the main card, so the statistic covers more than the featured bouts. The event also included decision results, including Rakić’s win over Tybura. The official results page is the reference for which contests contributed to the total.
