Islam Makhachev leads lightweight division with 15-fight UFC win streak

The current longest active win streaks in the UFC lightweight division show Islam Makhachev far ahead with 15 consecutive victories. Renato Moicano sits in second place with six wins, followed by Grant Dawson and Paddy Pimblatt with five each, and Arman Tsarukyan with four. The landscape has changed dramatically over recent years. One year ago, Makhachev led with 14 wins while Pimblatt had six and several fighters were tied at five. Two years ago, Makhachev had 12 wins while Moicano, Pimblatt, and Tsarukyan each had five or fewer. In April 2022, Charles Oliveira led with 10 wins, Makhachev had nine, and Beneil Dariush had seven. The data illustrates Makhachev's dominance and the volatile nature of the division.
