14 pairs of fists being represented as well, depending on whether or not Jailton Almeida chooses to unholster his or if air pockets get in the way of Macee Barber's (I kid, I kid). Recipe for 2024's best night of fights.

Not unusual anymore for UFC events to be repped by many countries. Nine of ten fighters on the UFC 275 main card were from different countries, and not one was American by the way.
EDIT: Oops, I was wrong. Make it 8 of 10.
