In a sport like MMA, putting together even a small run of wins is difficult. At the highest level inside the UFC it’s even harder. Styles clash, momentum shifts quickly, and one mistake can end everything. That’s what makes long winning streaks stand out so much. They don’t just show talent, they show consistency, discipline, and the ability to adapt.
Right now, a handful of fighters are separating themselves from the rest with impressive runs. That said, in this piece we will take a look at the longest active winning streaks in the UFC right now.
Who has the longest active winning streak in the UFC right now?
Islam Makhachev – 16 fights
Makhachev’s streak is on another level. Sixteen straight wins in the UFC isn’t something you see often, especially in lighter weight classes where the competition is stacked. Now holding the welterweight title after previously ruling lightweight, he’s managed to evolve his game without losing what made him dominant in the first place. It’s not just that he wins—it’s how controlled those wins tend to be.

Movsar Evloev – 10 fights
Evloev doesn’t get as much attention as some others, but his record speaks for itself. Ten consecutive wins at featherweight is no accident. He’s built his run on pressure, wrestling, and staying composed in close fights. He’s not flashy, but he’s extremely effective—and still unbeaten.

Khamzat Chimaev – 9 fights
Chimaev’s rise has been anything but quiet. With nine straight wins, he’s already captured the middleweight title and built a reputation for overwhelming opponents early. There’s always a sense that chaos follows him into the cage. His next fight against Sean Strickland could say a lot about how far this run can go.
Ilia Topuria – 9 fights
Topuria has taken a slightly different path finishing fights and making statements along the way. Now the lightweight champion after his featherweight run, he’s built a nine-fight streak on confidence and power. A potential matchup with Justin Gaethje at the UFC’s White House card only adds more intrigue to what’s next.
Carlos Ulberg – 9 fights
Ulberg’s streak has come together more quietly, but it’s just as real. Nine wins in a row at light heavyweight has pushed him into title contention, and now he’s set to face Jiri Prochazka for the belt. It’s a big moment and one that could turn his run into something much bigger.
The thing about streaks in MMA is that they’re always under threat. One fight can change everything. But for now, these fighters have managed to stay ahead of the curve, finding ways to win again and again in a sport that rarely allows it.
