According to the December 2001 issue of the Journal of Combative Sport, as of November 2001, 1101 fighters have died in a boxing ring. Don't know if they include UFC but likely so.

No one has died in the UFC. Boxing is far more hazardous because of the heavy padded gloves

No one has ever died in the UFC, the deaths in boxing more likely occur because of the standing 8 count. Continually receiving blows to the head is a good way to receive a brain injury.

No one in the UFC, but three men have died in MMA. Sam Vasquez in 2007, Douglas Dedge in 1998, and a 35 year old man only identified as Lee in South Korea in 2005.

Sam Vasquez of Houston died in 2007 a few weeks after suffering a blow to the chin in an MMA fight. The blow knowcked him out immediately and he was rushed to the hospital. After a few weeks and surgeries to relieve clots he suffered a major stroke and died. He had a 7 year old son.
