Dvalishvili became the first fighter in UFC history to achieve 100 takedowns inside the octagon.\n\nDvalishvili surpassed the hundred takedown mark, managing to take Sandhagen down 20 times, which raises his UFC takedown total to 117.\n\nBefore Dvalishvili, the closest fighter to reach 100 takedowns was Georges St-Pierre, who recorded 90 during his UFC career. Only four fighters have managed to reach 75 takedowns, demonstrating the magnitude of Dvalishvili&#8217;s achievement. At 34 years old, &#8220;The Machine&#8221; has already requested his fourth title defense for December, suggesting that he could surpass 200 takedowns in his career.\n\n<h2>Charles Oliveira Seeks to Leave His Mark in the UFC<\/h2>\n\nIn other UFC events, former lightweight champion Charles Oliveira will face Mateusz Gamrot in the main event of UFC Fight Night from Rio de Janeiro. This will be Oliveira&#8217;s first appearance in his home country, Brazil, since 2020. Oliveira, known for his records in the UFC, leads the list of finishes (20), submissions (16), and night bonuses (20).\n\nThe 35-year-old Brazilian fighter could break several UFC records. Below are some important milestones that Oliveira and other fighters are pursuing:\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">50 UFC Fights<\/h3>\n\n\nReaching 50 fights in the octagon requires more than 16 years in the UFC. Jim Miller, who debuted in 2008, holds the record with 46 appearances and plans to reach 50. Oliveira, with 15 more fights to reach 50, could also achieve it.\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">30 UFC Wins<\/h3>\n\n\nMiller also leads this record with 27 victories. Oliveira, with 23 victories, and Neil Magny, with 24, are other contenders.\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">20 Consecutive Victories<\/h3>\n\n\nThe UFC record is 16 consecutive victories, set by Anderson Silva. Jon Jones has a 19-fight undefeated streak, although it is not considered official due to a &#8220;no contest&#8221; in 2017. Islam Makhachev could add his sixteenth consecutive victory in his next fight.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a4.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2024%2F1118%2Fr1416512_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n<em>After defeating Stipe Miocic in November 2024, Jon Jones&#8217; winning streak stands at 19.<\/em>\n\n<em>Chris Unger\/Zuffa LLC<\/em>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">20 KOs in the UFC<\/h3>\n\n\nDerrick Lewis is the only one with 16 KOs. Max Holloway is the only active fighter with more than 10 KOs, with 11.\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Championships in Three Divisions<\/h3>\n\n\nAlex Pereira, who recently regained his light heavyweight championship, is interested in moving up in weight. Ilia Topuria and Khamzat Chimaev have also expressed their interest in achieving this feat.\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">15 Wins in Women&#8217;s Championship Fights<\/h3>\n\n\nAmanda Nunes and Valentina Shevchenko are the only women with more than 10 wins in championship fights.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0220%2Fr1454233_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n<em>Valentina Shevchenko has a record of 11-2-1 in UFC championship fights.
