Myktybek Orolbai is 5-1 in the UFC through six fights. He debuted on Nov. 18, 2023.
He beat Elves Brener by unanimous decision in a lightweight bout on May 4, 2024. His only loss on record came on Oct. 26, 2024, a split decision to Mateusz Rebecki at a catchweight.
Three wins have followed. Orolbai submitted Tofiq Musayev in the first round at a catchweight on June 21, 2025, then knocked out Jack Hermansson in the first round on Nov. 22, 2025, in a welterweight bout. He beat Chris Curtis by unanimous decision over three rounds at welterweight on March 14, 2026.
That run tracks a move up in weight. His last two fights on record were booked at welterweight, after earlier bouts at lightweight and catchweight. He is 4-1 in his last five.
