History is littered with fighters that tried, and failed, to get a UFC win despite several attempts.



Yoji Anjo


0-3 1997-2000 The former pro wrestler didn’t just have problems winning in the UFC. He didn’t win any of his six professional fights.

Tiki Ghosn


0-4 2000-04 Some say Tiki got so many chances because Dana White used to manage him. At least he got to date Arianny Celeste.

John Alessio


0-5 2000-2012 Despite some success in WEC, ‘The Natural’ couldn’t get it done on the biggest stage in mixed martial arts.

Seth Petruzelli


0-4 2006-10 ‘The Silverback’ may have stopped Kimbo Slice in seconds, but taking on the world’s best was a step too far.

Dan Lauzon


0-3 2006-10 Joe’s brother was just a boy when he made his unsuccessful debut. He fared no better a few years later on his return.

Gilbert Yvel


0-3 2010 The controversial Dutchman has won 39 times in his career, though sadly not once in the Octagon.

Gabe Ruediger


0-3 2006-11 He found a way back to the UFC despite getting kicked o TUF for eating too much cake, but still couldn’t get a ‘W’.

‘Kid’ Yamamoto


0-3 (1NC) 2011-17 Six years into his run in the MMA world leader and the Japanese icon still can’t buy a victory.
