List of UFC champions with most wins

#1 Demetrious Johnson

Demetrious Johnson has 11 successful title defences to his name

Compared to his counterparts in this list, Demetrious Johnson might not be a popular figure among casual fans. But hardcore followers of the sport would know how good he is. Demetrious Johnson was the inaugural UFC Flyweight champion. The Flyweight division started off with Johnson as champion after he defeated Joseph Benavidez in the Flyweight Tournament Final.

Johnson held onto the title for five long years after this win and defended it on 11 separate occasions. Many fighters like John Dodson, Joseph Benavidez, Kyoji Horiguchi, and Henry Cejudo among others tried to take the title away from Johnson and failed.

It was pure dominance from Johnson in most of these fights and through these, he cemented his place as one of the best MMA fighters out there. He finally dropped the title in 2018 when Henry Cejudo edged out Johnson via a split decision.
