Why it matters

  • Holloway's all-time records in strikes and fight time reflect both his extraordinary durability and his relentless offensive output across more than a decade in the UFC.
  • With 7.2 significant strikes landed per minute, his pace dwarfs the output of decorated veterans like Jim Miller, who posts 2.92, and Charles Oliveira, who posts 3.35.
  • Now competing at lightweight, ranked fourth in the division, Holloway's statistical footprint adds weight to any future title conversations in a stacked 155-pound picture that also includes third-ranked Oliveira.
  • His 13 post-fight bonuses signal that the records come packaged with consistent performance in high-profile moments.
