At US events, bouts with exactly one American fighter ended inside the distance 54% of the time (2,605 bouts), against 49% when neither fighter was American (995 bouts), a gap of 5 points.
Descriptive rates only. Correlation, not causation. A city or country with a home fighter may also host different cards, and that is not separated out here.
Descriptive only. This page describes past UFC results; it is not a forecast.
Unit: host country. Home means the fighter’s nationality is the host country’s. Finish rate in bouts with exactly one home fighter, against bouts with none.
“One home fighter” and “neither home” are bout counts; each is followed by the share of those bouts that ended inside the distance. “None” means there was no such bout to take a rate over. Scroll sideways on a phone.

Unit: US state of the event. Home means the fighter’s hometown state on UFCStats, which is listed for only a minority of fighters, so the count of bouts with one home-state fighter is tiny. Nevada here is every Nevada event, the UFC Apex and other venues together. Finish rate only. Not comparable with the home-state page, which uses Sherdog residence locality, a different set of fighters, and shows win rates.
