Who holds the record for most significant strikes landed in a single UFC fight?

Max Holloway holds the record for most significant strikes landed in a single UFC fight. He landed 445 significant strikes against Calvin Kattar at UFC Fight Night: Holloway vs. Kattar on January 16, 2021.

The five-round featherweight bout became one of the most statistically dominant performances in UFC history. Holloway won by unanimous decision, repeatedly outboxing Kattar while maintaining an extraordinary pace across all 25 minutes. Kattar remained upright despite absorbing the record total.

The number is often confused with total strikes, significant head strikes, or combined strikes by both fighters. Holloway’s 445 refers specifically to his own significant strikes landed. He also set major subcategory marks in the bout, including 274 significant head strikes and 117 significant body strikes.

Holloway had previously set the single-fight significant-strike record against Brian Ortega at UFC 231, landing 290. His performance against Kattar surpassed that mark by 155 strikes and reinforced his reputation as one of the UFC’s most prolific volume strikers.
