Here's an interesting read about whether or not fighters get a new belt each time they win a title fight.

@poir420, Dana said they get a belt home (I don't know if you get one for every win, but you get at least one) and the UFC brings one to the event when he was asked on Bendo walking out with the belt.

trivia:

So, if the UFC gives out a belt per each Championship win, how many belts are currently out there?

here's an old pic of Tito showing off 3 belts, so I guess they do give them a belt per win. Or at least used to.

Yeah if you read the article link I posted above it sounds like they used to do that and then they switched

I think it would be cool if the titles for each weight class were different.
