UFC lightweight division win streak rankings shift dramatically over two years

A comparison of the longest active win streaks in the UFC lightweight division shows significant changes over the past two years. Currently, the top streaks are led by Islam Makhachev, followed by several fighters with shorter runs. One year ago, the list was topped by Makhachev with 14 wins, followed by Paddy Pimblett with 6. Two years ago, Makhachev led with 12 wins, with Renato Moicano and others at 5. In April 2022, Charles Oliveira led with 10 wins, Makhachev had 9, and Beneil Dariush had 7. The data demonstrates how quickly the competitive landscape shifts in one of the UFC's most talent-rich divisions.
