Kevin Lee accomplished the feat at 25 years, 7 months, and 17 days.

Joshua Van etched his name into the UFC record books at UFC 328 on May 9, when the flyweight champion secured his 10th promotional victory at just 24 years and 7 months old, becoming the second-youngest fighter ever to reach that milestone.

Van, known as "The Fearless," carries a 17-2-0 professional record and holds the flyweight title at only 24 years of age. The Myanmar-born fighter, who trains out of 4oz. Fight Club, stands five-foot-five with a 65-inch reach and has been one of the most prolific strikers in the UFC, landing an extraordinary 8.84 significant strikes per minute at 56 percent accuracy. Those numbers place him among the most active and efficient offensive fighters on the roster at any weight class.

The only man 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 27-9-0 record and currently ranks fourth in the lightweight division and ninth in the pound-for-pound standings. The Hawaiian has long been regarded as one of the sport's elite volume strikers, averaging 7.2 significant strikes per minute across his career.

Jon Jones, who owns a 28-1-0 record and stands six-foot-four with an 84-inch reach, reached 10 UFC wins at 24 years, 9 months, and 2 days, placing him just behind Van on the all-time list.

Why it matters
- Van becomes the youngest active UFC champion to reach 10 promotional wins
- His position ahead of Jon Jones on this historical list underscores the pace of his early career dominance
- With a 56 percent striking accuracy and nearly nine significant strikes per minute, his style projects continued championship relevance in the flyweight division
