Reported prose from our newsroom. Technical striker
Ian Machado Garry is 10-1 through 11 UFC fights since his debut on Nov. 6, 2021.
None of his past five bouts ended inside the distance. He edged Geoff Neal by split decision on Feb. 17, 2024, then took a unanimous decision from Michael Page on June 29, 2024.
The lone loss on his UFC record came Dec. 7, 2024, when Shavkat Rakhmonov won a unanimous decision over five rounds.
Garry returned April 26, 2025, with a unanimous decision over Carlos Prates in another five-round fight, and followed with a unanimous decision over Belal Muhammad on Nov. 22, 2025.
That leaves him with wins in four of his last five, every one of those five fights settled by the judges. All five were welterweight bouts.

Where the strikes go — and where they land on him. Career UFC totals, straight off the tape.
Significant strikes only, as recorded by UFCStats, across the fighter's whole UFC career. Shares are raw counts — nothing here is modelled or smoothed. Accuracy is landed ÷ attempted and comes from the per-round tape, which covers slightly fewer fights than the totals do. “Field” is the average fighter in that weight class, or across every division where a class is too small to average.
The level change — how often it lands, how often it is stopped. Career UFC rates, straight off the tape.
Rate bars run to the population’s 95th percentile (4.97 takedowns / 15m); a fighter above it pins the bar. Percentages are drawn on their own axis.
Career UFC takedown rates exactly as UFCStats publishes them: takedowns landed per 15 minutes, completion rate, submission attempts per 15 minutes, and the share of takedowns tried on them that they stuffed. Attempts per 15 is the one derived figure — landed ÷ completion rate — and it is omitted wherever either input is missing. UFCStats writes 0% where no attempt was recorded at all, so a percentage of exactly zero reads “n/a” here rather than as a measured rate. “Field” is the average fighter in that weight class, or across every division where a class is too small to average.
Pro record: 17-2. In the UFC: 10-2. Ian Machado Garry’s last 8 UFC bouts, most recent first — the result in the cage, not our pick.
Straight off the official UFC fight record. Card names are left off on purpose: the only event labels in our data are derived, and we’d rather print nothing than print one that’s wrong.
