Better known simply by its initials (UFC) is as of right now the premier Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) organization in the world. It has slowly replaced boxing as the preferred combat sport in the United States (Boxing still remains more recognized worldwide).
The UFC has become a cultural phenomenon and has therefore become associated & attracted many undesirables.
1. UFC only fans are known as being very loud, stupid & opinionated.
2. The attire of choice is made out of highly ridiculous skull, bones & tribal designs. Some of the designs even resemble the eagle and iron cross as was used by the Nazi party.
3. Even though the UFC is the organization and Mixed Martial Arts is the sport the embodiment of Martial Arts is rarely seen or present as the major emphasis is on the entertainment aspect of things (Trash talk, nonsensical hyperboles, in your face attitudes & tired out catchphrases are the norm just as on professional wrestling).
Mixed Martial Arts as it was in Japan with the PRIDE organization was more closely associated with glory, perseverance and the samurai spirit. The UFC has shown during its broadcasts to be more about the business, entertainment & marketing side of it.
What does the UFC stand for?
It stands for the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is the largest mixed martial arts promotion company in the world featuring most of the top-ranked fighters in the sport. Based in the United States, the UFC produces events worldwide. The organization showcases nine weight divisions and enforces the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts. The UFC promotes a brand of MMA which is self-acknowledged as "not just a sporting event; it is also entertainment and theater. The fighters are athletes and performers both." The UFC has held over 250 events to date. Dana White serves as the president of the UFC while brothers Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta control the UFC's parent company, Zuffa, LLC.
The first Ultimate Fighting Championship event was held on November 12, 1993 in Denver, Colorado. The purpose of the early UFC competitions was to identify the most effective martial art in a real fight between competitors of different fighting disciplines, including Boxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Sambo, Wrestling, Muay Thai, Karate, Judo, and other styles. In subsequent competitions, fighters began adopting effective techniques from more than one discipline, which indirectly helped create an entirely separate style of fighting known as present-day mixed martial arts.
