A record-by-record tour of the UFC welterweight ladder — who sits on top, who's climbing, and where the real intrigue lives.
Welterweight is stacked, and right now the belt sits with Islam Makhachev (28-1-0) of Russia. That record is the loudest argument in the room: twenty-eight wins against a single loss is the kind of ledger you build over years, not months. Whatever you think of the division’s contenders, the champion’s resume is the bar everyone else is measuring themselves against.
So the real question fans are arguing over isn’t whether Makhachev is good — it’s who’s next, and the answer is genuinely up for grabs.
#1 Ian Machado Garry (17-1-0) of Ireland is the closest thing to a clear frontrunner. One blemish on seventeen fights, sitting at the top of the contender pile — that’s a fighter the ranking is practically pointing toward a title shot. If you’re picking a challenger, this is the name with the cleanest path.
Right behind him, #2 Carlos Prates (24-7-0) of Brazil brings volume — twenty-four wins is serious mileage, though the seven losses tell you he’s fought a rougher road than Garry. #4 Jack Della Maddalena (18-4-0) of Australia and #5 Gabriel Bonfim (20-1-0) of Brazil round out the top five, and Bonfim’s 20-1 line quietly rivals anyone’s here for efficiency. One loss in twenty-one fights, ranked fifth — that’s a climber worth watching.
What makes welterweight so fun to argue over is the pile of former-elite names sitting in the #6–#10 range:
This is the traffic jam that makes the division great: any of these five could string together a run and force their way back up the ladder.
Here’s the stat that jumps off the page. #11 Yaroslav Amosov (30-1-0) of Ukraine has thirty wins against a single loss — the best raw record on this entire list, champion included by win total. Sitting at #11, he’s the ranking’s most fascinating puzzle: an elite ledger parked outside the top ten. If you like betting on a surge, keep both eyes on him.
Further down, #13 Michael Page (25-3-0) carries twenty-five wins into the #13 slot, and #15 Daniel Rodriguez (20-5-0) of the USA anchors the list with a twenty-win resume of his own. Even the bottom of this top fifteen is populated by fighters most divisions would kill to have.
Welterweight is the division where the arguments never settle, and that’s exactly why it’s worth following card by card. Pick your climber, defend your champion, and build your bracket — because at 170, everyone’s got a case.
