Champion feats^[18]
No UFC championships changed hands during the 2020 calendar year, marking the first year without a title change since 1999. With his 14th title‑fight victory, Jon Jones set a new UFC record, surpassing the previous mark of 13 held by Georges St-Pierre. Amanda Nunes became the first fighter to defend titles in two divisions while holding both championships simultaneously. Joseph Benavidez became the first fighter to go 0–4 in undisputed championship bouts. Khabib Nurmagomedov became the first fighter to win three consecutive title fights via submission. Deiveson Figueiredo recorded the fastest turnaround between UFC championship fights at 21 days
Fighter feats^[18]
Aleksei Oleinik became the first fighter in MMA history to have victories in four separate decades (1990s, 2000s, 2010s, 2020s) Jon Jones became the first fighter to record 20 victories in a single UFC weight division, a feat later matched by Max Holloway in 2023. Priscila Cachoeira's 40 second knockout at UFC Fight Night 168 was the fastest finish in women's flyweight history. Angela Hill’s six bouts from March 23, 2019 to February 23, 2020 were the most in an 11‑month span. The record was later surpassed by Kevin Holland, who competed seven times between May 2020 and April 2021. Israel Adesanya reached eight UFC wins in 755 days, the shortest span in which any fighter has achieved that mark. Charles Oliveira's fifth guillotine-choke submission set a new record for the most in company history. Curtis Blaydes set a new UFC heavyweight record by landing 14 takedowns in a single bout. Dustin Poirier and Dan Hooker's 390 combined total strikes landed set the record for the most in a lightweight bout. Khamzat Chimaev set the modern UFC record for the shortest timeframe to earn two victories, winning twice in just ten days. Paul Craig became the first fighter to win via triangle-choke submission in three separate bouts. Shana Dobson's win over Mariya Agapova marked the biggest betting‑odds upset in UFC history at +1250. Hannah Cifers became the first fighter to suffer four consecutive losses in a calendar year. Khamzat Chimaev set the modern UFC record for the shortest timeframe to earn three victories, winning three times in 66 days. Glover Teixeira became the first in history to have five straight wins at the age of 40 or older. Glover Teixeira set division records for the most submissions (6) and most finishes (12) in UFC light heavyweight history.
