What does BMF stand for?
BMF stands for “baddest mother****er.” It’s a symbolic championship created by UFC to celebrate fighters known for toughness, durability, and an all-action fighting style. Unlike traditional UFC titles, the BMF belt isn’t tied to a weight-class ranking. Instead, it’s about reputation, performance, and the willingness to fight the toughest opponents on the biggest stages.
As recounted on UFC.com, the BMF concept dates back to 2019 when Nate Diaz, upon his UFC 241 win over Anthony Pettis, declared, “We’re fighting for the baddest mother****er in the game belt, and that’s mine.” A way with words – and how. When Diaz stepped into the Octagon® to fight Jorge Masvidal at UFC 244, he was fighting for UFC’s first BMF title. (Masvidal won.)
The BMF title is reserved for fights that capture the spirit of high-stakes competition and fan-driven excitement rather than divisional politics. Heading into UFC 326, there have only been BMF title fights.
Winning the BMF title doesn’t come with mandatory defenses or ranking implications, but it does carry something just as valuable: recognition as one of the most fearless and entertaining fighters in the sport. And, also, you get to say you were the, well, BMF.
