When did the UFC X event first happen?

UFC X is an improved version of the organization's fan-expo event. It replicates the model of the previous format with better experiences for the fans. The previous format was revamped at last year's International Fight Week, and the two-day event was held on July 1 and July 2, 2022.

Fighters like Charles Oliveira, Chuck Liddell, Urijah Faber, Belal Muhammad and Marlon Vera were in attendance. While last year's event had 40 fighters attend the event, this year has 48 fighters, including Hall of Famers and champions.
