BMF stands for one of the most prestigious unofficial titles in the UFC—the BaddestMotherF***er. The term originated in November 2019 and was designed specifically for a fight between Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz. It was meant as a testament to toughness, utilized with fighter skills and spirit, with a hint of swagger.

The expanded meaning of the BMF is a celebration, a recognition of the fighter who not only fights raw but also has a certain attitude, possesses charisma, takes risks, and is unique in their actions. They always go the extra mile to satisfy the audience and leave them wanting more—all traits that resonate with their fans.

The fighters fighting for this title know what it takes to earn it, and not many can. This title stands for more than just a belt; it stands for glory and legacy beyond a fighter with regular skills.

TKO, an abbreviation for a technical knockout, is a term used in combat sports such as boxing, karate, mixed martial arts, kickboxing, and combat video games. It’s a declaration made by the referee when the fighter is unable to continue the fight safely due to factors such as injury or exhaustion.

Usually involving an injury, official attending physicians are also permitted to stop the match, enter the ring, and provide the fighter with first aid.

In the context of championship fights authorized by the World Boxing Association (WBA), a TKO is announced when a fighter is knocked down three times in a single round. This is referred to as an ‘automatic knockout’ in WBA rules. Moreover, in amateur boxing, a boxer is automatically declared the winner by TKO if his opponent is knocked down four times in an entire match.
