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

Joshua Van etched his name into UFC history at UFC 328 on May 9, 2026, becoming the second-youngest fighter ever to record ten wins inside the octagon, achieving the milestone at just 24 years and seven months of age.

The flyweight champion from Myanmar carries a professional record of 17-2-0 and holds UFC gold in the 125-pound division. Fighting out of 4oz. Fight Club with an orthodox stance, the 24-year-old stands five-foot-five with a 65-inch reach. Known as "The Fearless," Van has built his reputation on relentless output, landing 8.84 significant strikes per minute at an accuracy rate of 56 percent — numbers that rank among the most prolific in the sport.

The only fighter to have reached the ten-win mark at a younger age is Max Holloway, who did so at 23 years, eight months, and nineteen days. Now 34, Holloway holds a record of 27-9-0 and is ranked fourth in the lightweight division and ninth in the pound-for-pound rankings. His own striking pedigree — 7.2 significant strikes landed per minute — makes the company Van now keeps all the more meaningful.

Jon Jones sits third on the all-time list, having hit the benchmark at 24 years, nine months, and two days. The 38-year-old orthodox fighter owns a record of 28-1-0, with a six-foot-four frame, an 84-inch reach, and a striking accuracy of 58 percent to go along with 1.89 takedowns per fifteen minutes.
