The UFC was created in 1993 by Art Davie and Rorion Gracie as a tournament designed to determine which martial art was most effective in real combat situations. The first event, held in Denver, Colorado, featured fighters from different disciplines—including boxing, wrestling, karate, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu—competing with minimal rules in a format that shocked audiences with its raw, unregulated nature. The Texas Mint recently teamed up with UFC to release a collection of silver rounds honoring the sport and its greatest athletes.
Texas Mint’s collection of UFC silver rounds features individual designs for some of the sport’s greatest athletes. The rounds in this series share a common obverse design featuring the logo of UFC, while the reverse of each round depicts a different fighter. Each round offers 1 troy oz of .999 pure silver and comes with a capsule, box, and a themed outer shipper.
The Fertitta brothers’ purchase of the struggling organization in 2001 marked a turning point, as new management introduced weight classes, expanded rules, and improved safety measures to gain athletic commission approval. The sport’s legitimacy grew through the 2000s with the popularity of “The Ultimate Fighter” reality show, eventual regulation in all fifty states, and the UFC’s emergence as a billion-dollar enterprise that transformed mixed martial arts into a globally recognized sport.
The UFC has become one of the world’s most valuable sports organizations, holding events across six continents and broadcasting to over 170 countries with a diverse roster of international champions. The promotion has produced mainstream stars who transcend the sport, secured lucrative broadcasting deals, and built a loyal fan base that regularly drives strong pay-per-view numbers and live attendance. Mixed martial arts training has exploded in popularity partly due to the UFC’s influence, with millions participating in MMA-related fitness programs while the organization continues to break into new markets and attract major corporate sponsorships.
