Current statistics show the longest active winning streaks in the UFC welterweight division. Michael Morales from Ecuador and Shavkat Rakhmonov from Kazakhstan are tied for the longest streaks with seven consecutive victories each. Michel Pereira from Brazil has won five straight fights. Three fighters are tied with four-fight winning streaks: Mike Malott from Canada, Gabriel Bonfim from Brazil, and Punahele Soriano from the United States. These streaks represent the most consistent performances in the division heading into upcoming matchmaking decisions.
Two UFC welterweights are setting the pace for consistency in the 170-pound division, with Michael Morales and Shavkat Rakhmonov each riding seven-fight winning streaks — the longest active runs at welterweight as of April 2026.
Rakhmonov, ranked third in the division, remains one of the most imposing presences in the weight class. The 31-year-old Kazakh known as "Nomad" carries a perfect 19-0 professional record and stands six-foot-four with a 77-inch reach. His 60 percent striking accuracy is among the most efficient in the division, and he adds 1.4 takedowns and 1.2 submission attempts per 15 minutes, making him a genuine threat across all phases of a fight.
Michel Pereira, the Brazilian nicknamed "Demolidor," sits five wins into his current streak. The 32-year-old brings a 32-15 overall record and lands 4.46 significant strikes per minute with 51 percent accuracy, a combination that reflects his aggressive, high-output style.
Gabriel Bonfim rounds out the notable streaks covered by verified data, sitting at four consecutive wins. Ranked tenth at welterweight, the 28-year-old Brazilian operates out of an orthodox stance at six-foot-one with a 72-inch reach. He produces 4.61 significant strikes per minute alongside 3.6 takedowns and 1.4 submission attempts per 15 minutes — numbers that indicate a well-rounded and relentless approach.
Mike Malott of Canada and American Punahele Soriano also sit on four-fight streaks, though detailed verified statistics for those two were not available.
