From the FightMetric blog:

  • UFC 136 broke the record for longest UFC event. The 158 minutes and 32 seconds of fight time bested UFC Fight Night 20, which lasted 149 minutes and 50 seconds.
  • Nam Phan set the record for most significant strikes in a single fight with 174. He landed 102 significant strikes in their first fight as well.
  • Phan and Leonard Garcia combined for 274 significant strikes, falling 4 short of the record held by Chris Lytle and Matt Serra.
  • Phan doubled Garcia's output to the head (138-61) and body (57-21) while Garcia monopolized strikes to the leg (25-0).
  • FightMetric scored the bout 30-27, and did not credit Garcia with a knockdown in the third. Phan had a significant lead in every striking category outside of leg strikes.
  • Kenny Florian edged Jose Aldo in total strikes (69-66), but Aldo had the advantage in significant strikes (51-40).
  • Aldo landed to the head more often (52-23) while Florian targeted the body (19-5) and legs (27-9).
  • FightMetric credited Florian with 1 takedown in 19 attempts.
  • FightMetric scored the bout 30-27 50-45. Despite being (slightly) outstruck by volume, Aldo was awarded round one based on strikes to the head (12-4).
  • In the main event, Frankie Edgar and Gray Maynard were unsuccessful in a combined 13 takedowns attempts (11 for Edgar, 2 for Maynard). Maynard outlanded Edgar 24-11 in significant strikes in the first, while Edgar reversed that in rounds two through four (50-8).
