About Most Decision Wins in UFC History

Fighters with the most victories by judges' decision

This leaderboard ranks UFC fighters by how many of their wins reached the judges' scorecards. Every UFC win recorded as a unanimous, split or majority decision counts once; knockouts, submissions and disqualification wins do not. Fighters are sorted from the most decision wins down, with total wins used as a tiebreaker, so the names at the top are the ones who have repeatedly proven they can win by outworking an opponent over a full fight rather than ending it early. The division filter counts only the decisions won at that weight.

What a long decision list really tells you

A deep decision history is one of the clearest fingerprints of a particular kind of fighter: the durable, high-IQ point-fighter. These are grinders and technicians who control range, manage distance, and pile up output without exposing themselves to the wild exchanges that produce highlight finishes. It is rarely an accident. A fighter who routinely sees the final horn is usually hard to hurt, comfortable in deep waters, and confident in their ability to bank rounds, which is exactly the profile that thrives in championship-distance five-round fights.

It is worth noting that decisions are not a knock on quality. Plenty of elite champions live here because dominance and finishing are not the same skill. Controlling someone for twenty-five minutes is its own form of mastery, even if it does not light up the post-fight reel. That durability also tends to correlate with longevity, since fighters who avoid being knocked out or submitted protect their record and their health over a long career. You can cross-reference these names against our worst finish rate, split decision wins and go-the-distance boards, or against MMA.SOCIAL's own ELO rankings to see how the grinders stack up against the finishers.

For fans, this stat is a great lens for understanding fight IQ and style. If you want to know who will drag an opponent into a chess match, test their gas tank, and trust the judges, this is the list to study.
