Ranking Update

Light heavyweight division has zero fighters on three-fight winning streaks

Quick read

An infographic reveals the current state of winning streaks across UFC divisions, showing how many fighters in each weight class's top-15 and top-5 are riding streaks of three or more consecutive victories, excluding champions. The light heavyweight division stands out dramatically as having zero fighters in the top-15 currently on three-fight winning streaks. More remarkably, only one fighter in the entire 205-pound top-15 has any winning streak at all, and that fighter is Paulo Costa, who earned one of those victories while still competing at middleweight. The analysis contrasts the welterweight division, currently considered the most competitive and deep in the UFC, with light heavyweight, which represents the inverse of healthy divisional competition. The stark statistics highlight an unusual lack of momentum and clarity in the 205-pound rankings.
