Diaz out-struck his opponent at double the volume in a moderate-paced fight.
Juan Diaz extended his winning run to 10 fights on Saturday, taking a unanimous decision over Alatengheili at UFC 334. All three judges scored the bout 30-27 for the Peruvian.
The result moves Diaz to 17-1-1. It was only his second win inside the UFC, and it came in a fight that played out at a moderate pace. Diaz was the busier fighter by a wide margin, out-striking his opponent at double the volume over three rounds.
Diaz: a finisher turned decision winner
Diaz, 28, fights out of Peru and works from an orthodox stance. He stands five-foot-eight (173 cm) with a 69-inch (175 cm) reach. His career numbers show a fighter who leans on wrestling: he averages 5.5 takedowns per 15 minutes, alongside 3.72 significant strikes landed per minute at 41 percent accuracy. He also attempts 0.8 submissions per 15 minutes.
His most recent recorded fight before this one came on May 16, 2026, when he submitted Malcolm Wellmaker in the second round at UFC Fight Night: Allen vs. Costa. Saturday's win was therefore a change of method. His previous recorded UFC outing ended inside two rounds, while this one went the full 15 minutes and was decided on the scorecards.
Alatengheili: inconsistent over his last five
Alatengheili falls to 18-11-2. He has alternated wins and losses across his last five fights, and the defeat at UFC 334 keeps that pattern intact. With 31 professional bouts, he is the more experienced of the two, but he was unable to match Diaz's output in this one.
Why it matters
- Diaz has now won 10 straight, and two of those victories have come under the UFC banner, giving him a growing body of work at the top level.
- A 30-27 sweep on all three cards leaves no room for debate over the outcome.
- Alatengheili's win-loss-win-loss-style run continues, leaving him searching for the back-to-back victories that would break the cycle.
For Diaz, the notable development is versatility. He has shown he can finish a fight with a submission and also control one for three rounds on volume, a useful pairing of outcomes as he builds his UFC résumé.
