Neil Magny earned a share of the all-time record for UFC welterweight wins with his performance this past weekend. He defeated Max Griffin via split decision and is now well-placed in the division at no. 9 and with back-to-back wins. At 34 years old, he may well become the outright leader in welterweight wins before long.

Magny first debuted in the promotion back in 2013. He quickly got his name in the history books in 2014 when he tied the record for most wins in a calendar year with five victories. He’s also defeated some big names along the way, including Kelvin Gastelum, Carlos Condit and Robbie Lawler.

With Magny now pursuing a 20th octagon win, it will be interesting to see who he might face next. Looking over the rankings, both Stephen Thompson and Sean Brady seem like viable options when he returns to the octagon. Regardless of the opponent, fans will eagerly watch to see if Magny can get to a historic 20 wins.


#1. Georges St-Pierre - 19 UFC welterweight wins

Few will be surprised to see Georges St-Pierre have a share of the top spot given many consider him to be the greatest of all time. ‘GSP’ held the UFC welterweight title on two occasions, earning nine successful title defenses and even winning the middleweight championship in his last career bout.

St-Pierre first won the title back in 2004 before being upset in his first title defense by Matt Serra. This would prove to be the last loss of his career as the Canadian quickly got his revenge on Serra and proceeded on a historic run with the belt.

St-Pierre beat the likes of B.J. Penn and Nick Diaz before his first "retirement" back in 2013. He then returned to the octagon in 2017 where he defeated Michael Bisping to win the middleweight title for the first time. While his resume is unqestionable, his record of most welterweight wins could be at risk.
