The Most Total Strikes in a Single UFC Fight
Total strikes capture everything a fighter throws that lands — the significant power shots plus the constant short strikes from top control and the clinch. This record book ranks the highest single-fight total-strike outputs ever recorded, by one fighter and by both fighters combined.
Because ground strikes count here, the leaderboard is a fascinating mix of tireless volume kickboxers and suffocating grapplers who rain down dozens of small strikes from dominant positions. Switch between the Single Fighter and Combined views and filter by division to explore the busiest performances in UFC history.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the record for most total strikes in a single UFC fight?
Khamzat Chimaev holds the single-fighter total-strikes record with 529 total strikes landed against Dricus Du Plessis at UFC 319 in August 2025, an almost entirely grappling-driven output built from relentless top position rather than stand-up volume.
How are total strikes different from significant strikes?
Total strikes count every strike that lands, including short control strikes and pawing jabs thrown from top position or the clinch. Significant strikes exclude those low-impact shots. That is why grapplers who smother opponents on the mat can top the total-strike list while volume kickboxers dominate the significant-strike version.
Why do the total and significant records have different leaders?
A ground-control specialist can pile up hundreds of small strikes from inside an opponent's guard that count toward total strikes but not significant strikes, whereas a stand-up sniper lands fewer but more meaningful blows. The two lists therefore reward completely different styles.
Do these totals include all rounds of the fight?
Yes. Each figure sums a fighter's total strikes across every round of a single bout, so five-round main events and title fights naturally give athletes the most room to accumulate huge numbers.
