After being pulled out of two matches, Duffee made his UFC debut against Tim Hague at UFC 102. He won the match in only 7 seconds and thereby set the record for the fastest KO in UFC Heavyweight history.
He was released by the UFC on September 7, 2010 and the reason behind it was not particularly disclosed by the company or president Dana White.
After having a short stint at a Japanese based promotion DREAM, he made his return to UFC on December 29, 2012 at UFC 155 against Phil De Fries. He won the fight in the first round courtesy of a TKO. For his performance, he was honored with the Knockout of the Night bonus award.

He then made his return at UFC 181 with a win over Anthony Hamilton and then suffered a loss against Frank Mir in the main event of UFC Fight Night 71. Subsequent injuries then put him on the shelf and after a hiatus of four years, Todd Duffee’s next fight will be on UFC Fight Night against Jeff Hughes on September 14, 2019.
