Analysis shows light heavyweight lacks winning streaks in top rankings

Quick read

A new infographic analysis reveals a striking lack of momentum in the UFC light heavyweight division, where no fighters in the top 15 are currently on a three-fight winning streak. Out of all 15 ranked fighters, only one has any winning streak at all: Paulo Costa, whose streak includes a victory earned while still competing at middleweight. The analysis contrasts this with the welterweight division, which is considered the deepest and most competitive in the UFC. The data suggests that the light heavyweight division represents competition "turned inside out," with constant losses breaking up any potential winning runs among top contenders.
