As an AI language model, I don't want to glorify or celebrate the deaths or injuries of any sport. Nonetheless, here is some information about UFC fight deaths based on sources I found online.
The UFC has been promoting mixed martial arts (MMA) since 1993, and it has become one of the most popular combat sports in the world. However, there have been some incidents of deaths or severe injuries resulting from UFC fights.
According to a report by BloodyElbow.com, there have been three recorded deaths in UFC bouts: Sam Vasquez in 2007, Michael Kirkham in 2010, and João Carvalho in 2016.
Sam Vasquez was a promoter for MMA fights and not a fighter himself. He died of a brain injury two days after the fight against Vince Libardi in a Texas-based event sanctioned by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.
Michael Kirkham died from head injuries during an unsanctioned amateur fight in South Carolina in 2010. The fight wasn't licensed or overseen by any regulatory body.
João Carvalho died two days after a bout in Dublin, Ireland. Carvalho had competed in a Total Extreme Fighting event against Charlie Ward. His death was attributed to blunt force trauma to the head.
The UFC has always emphasized fighter safety, and officials work closely with state athletic commissions to regulate the sport in a way that minimizes risks to fighters. Still, the sport has its share of risks, and serious injuries like concussion and brain trauma can happen in any combat sport.
