Following his win at UFC 327, Carlos Ulberg has moved into the top three for longest active win streaks in the promotion. Islam Makhachev leads all UFC fighters with 16 consecutive victories. Both Ulberg and Movsar Evloev are tied for second place with 10 straight wins each. Ilia Topuria and Khamzat Chimaev each have nine-fight winning streaks, rounding out the top five. Ulberg's impressive run has established him as one of the most consistent performers in his division.
Carlos Ulberg climbed into elite company on the UFC's all-time active win-streak list following his victory at UFC 327 on April 11, joining a short group of fighters who have strung together ten or more consecutive wins inside the promotion.
Ulberg now sits tied for second place on that list alongside Movsar Evloev, both men having rattled off ten straight victories. His consistency has made him one of the most dependable performers in his division, and Saturday's result only deepened that reputation.
Sitting alone at the top of the leaderboard is welterweight champion Islam Makhachev, whose active winning streak has reached a remarkable 16 fights. The 34-year-old Russian, who trains out of Eagles MMA, carries a professional record of 28-1 and lands strikes at a 58 percent accuracy rate while averaging 3.2 takedowns per 15 minutes — a combination that has made him the pound-for-pound benchmark in the sport.
Rounding out the top five are two fighters separated by a single win from the tied duo. Ilia Topuria, ranked number one pound for pound and currently sitting second in the lightweight division, has won nine straight and carries an overall record of 17-1. The 29-year-old fighting out of Spain averages an eye-catching 4.81 significant strikes per minute. Khamzat Chimaev, ranked first in the middleweight division, also brings a nine-fight streak and a 15-1 record. The 32-year-old representing the United Arab Emirates averages 5.29 takedowns per 15 minutes and lands strikes at a 60 percent clip, the highest accuracy figure among this group.
Why it matters
- Ulberg's ten-fight streak places him among the UFC's most consistent active performers regardless of division
- Makhachev's 16-fight run is the clear benchmark and underlines his dominance at the top of the welterweight division
- Topuria and Chimaev, both hovering at nine wins, will be watching closely — one more finish each pulls them level with Ulberg and Evloev
