2026 Topps Knockout UFC released June 26 as Topps's premium annual MMA set, built almost entirely around on-card autographs, multi-fighter booklets, and an aggressive parallel ladder that runs 13 levels deep. The base set covers 100 fighters from today's champions to rising contenders, and the insert program leans hard into rare, numbered-only content.
The Checklist
The base set covers at least 100 fighters spanning current UFC champions, ranked contenders, and established names across every weight class. Insert content is built around numbered autographs and booklets rather than standard inserts: From The Rafters Autograph Booklets, UFC Staredown Signatures Booklets, Dynamic Duels, Quad Autograph Booklets, and Triumphant Trios round out the high-end pulls. Every base card carries the full 13-tier parallel ladder, with Platinum 1/1 sitting at the top.

Quad Autograph Booklets are confirmed at 6 copies across the product; Triumphant Trios at 4. From The Rafters Autograph Booklets account for 19 confirmed copies and UFC Staredown Signatures Booklets for 10.
Why Collectors Care
Knockout has always been Topps's answer to the question of what a premium MMA product looks like, and the 2026 edition makes the case with its strongest auto roster yet. McGregor and Makhachev on the same checklist — both with on-card signatures — is the kind of pairing that drives real secondary market activity. The booklet program, particularly the four-signer Quad Autos, gives high-end collectors a genuine reason to crack cases rather than cherry-pick singles.
What To Watch After Launch
First-week auction results on the Quad Auto Booklets and McGregor autos will set the market ceiling for the entire product. The Mackenzie Dern /99 has already moved publicly, so watch how the rest of the Lime Green tier prices out across subjects as more boxes break.
