Joshua Van becomes second-youngest to reach 10 UFC wins at 24 years old

Joshua Van secured his 10th UFC victory at just 24 years and 7 months of age at UFC 328 on May 9, 2026, cementing his place in the record books as the second-youngest fighter ever to reach that milestone.

Van, known as "The Fearless," is the reigning flyweight champion from Myanmar with a professional record of 17-2-0. At only 24 years old, he has already established himself as one of the most productive finishers in the division, landing an extraordinary 8.84 significant strikes per minute at a 56 percent accuracy rate — numbers that rank among the best in the sport regardless of weight class. Standing five-foot-five with a 65-inch reach, Van competes out of 4oz. Fight Club.

The only fighter to reach 10 UFC wins at a younger age is Max Holloway, who hit the mark at 23 years, 8 months, and 19 days. Holloway, now 34, holds a record of 27-9-0 and is currently ranked fourth in the lightweight division and ninth in the pound-for-pound rankings. The Hawaiian is renowned for his striking volume, averaging 7.2 significant strikes per minute across his career. Jon Jones, who reached 10 UFC wins at 24 years, 9 months, and 2 days, sits third on that list. Jones carries a career record of 28-1-0 and boasts a 58 percent striking accuracy alongside 1.89 takedowns per 15 minutes.

Why it matters

• Van surpasses Jon Jones and lands just behind Max Holloway in one of the sport's most selective historical benchmarks
• His flyweight championship status means continued rapid development could redefine the division for years ahead
• A striking output of 8.84 significant strikes per minute suggests elite-level pressure that few flyweights can match
