How long Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt?
About 3 years or so depending on the style and the school.
It takes as long as it takes. You can't put a date on earning a black belt, because everyone is different. In most traditional Okinawan styles of karate it takes around 4 to 5 years.
If a place guarantees you a black belt in three years, run, don't walk, away!

I began learning TKD when I was 10 years old and I achieved my black belt in four years. However all the other black belts I know, who are all older than me, have taken longer to get their black belts. It depends how focused and determined you are, not to mention how seriously black belt is your goal and where it stands on a list of your life priorities. As a young person it was top on my list for the entire four years, as I had no job or important exams to worry about yet at that time.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is almost impossible to answer as it depends on how often the student trains, how hard they train and how quickly they learn. Students who are more dedicated and train hard will obviously achieve their black belt before other less devoted students but to put a time span on it is difficult. I would say that even the most dedicated of students should train at least three years before being allowed to Dan Grade

I've been taking karate for 13 years. I started when I was 2 and I got my black belt when I was 11. I'm not saying it's gonna take you 9 years, but it is going to take a while. It also depends on the Dojo, not all Dojo's are going to give 11 year olds black belts and say they can teach, it takes time. Also, it's going to take a long time and a lot of tests to get Sensei, there's a lot of Kyu's and it takes time to get through them all.
I've been in Tae-Kwon-Do for two and a half years. I will hopefully get my red belt this summer. After that I have to wait a year to test for recommended black belt and then another year to get certified Black Belt.
This means it will have taken me just under five years to achieve black belt. This of course varies from person to person. I progressed fairly quickly, but others will take longer.
Depends on the style you do, I attempted my black belt after 4 years of training, my mum in 3. Some people take longer than others but it depends how passionate you are.
For example in Shotokan karate you only have to wait 6 months from the highest kyu grade to take your black belt. All styles are different.

I have been doing gojo ryu karate for 3 years and I'm going for my black belt in June 2011. Really it depends how committed and focused you are. Of course you need to have good Kata's but they give you it on your attitude as well. Sometimes you may need to wait until you have been training for 5 years before you go but I'm special
Keith Jardine, Jeremy Horn, Quinton Rampage Jackson (twice), Randy Couture, Rashad Evans and Mauricio 'Shogun' Rua have all defeated Chuck Liddell.
What martial arts are used in UFC?
You can use a number of styles in UFC, really almost anything goes. Ill advise Muay Thai which is Kick boxing with elbows and knees and some form of wrestling or Judo.
Brazilian Jujitsu is very common allso. In my opinion if you don't have some Brazilian jujitsu under your belt you will be taken advantage over.
Another few are wrestling which is mostly takedowns. Boxing is used a lot also. NOGI jiu jitsu. Judo is takedowns as well
Is there an age limit for UFC?
Yes. If you are talking about the minimum age limit to fight in the UFC, then it would be 18 because UFC is a combat sport where people can get hurt and injured. So, they would not allow minors to compete. If you are asking about the upper age limit, then, frankly speaking there is no upper limit. As long as a fighter is willing and medically able to fight, he can stay a fighter in the UFC.
