The UFC Championship belt is 50in long, weighs 5.5lbs and has 16 solid brass straps. It also includes a velvet zippered carrying case to protect it from damage.
Speaking on an episode of his own podcast in 2019, former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping shed some light on the price of UFC Championship belts. According to Bisping, former light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans once told him about the price of UFC championship belts. Bisping said:
New policy with the UFC Championship belt
This valuation could be a possible reason for the UFC changing its belt gifting policy in 2019. The UFC stopped gifting a shiny new belt for each successful title defense post-2019 and also brought in a new design for the belt. Defending champions now receive a new stone in the title plate for each title defense.
While confirming the price of UFC championship belts, Michael Bisping continued:
Though the exact price of the new design is still unknown, the price of the belt might certainly be a reason for the change in policy about the granting belts at title defenses. However, the former UFC champion can boast of having multiple belts in store. Former UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson received 10 UFC title belts.
