Lightweight division's longest active win streaks have shifted dramatically

A comparison of the longest active win streaks in the UFC lightweight division shows significant changes over recent years. Currently, Islam Makhachev leads with 15 consecutive wins. One year ago, Makhachev had 14 wins, with Paddy Pimblett at six, and Chase Hooper, Nasrat Haqparast, and Fares Ziam each at five. Two years ago, Makhachev had 12 wins, with Renato Moicano and Pimblett at five each. In April 2022, Charles Oliveira led with 10 wins, Makhachev had nine, Beneil Dariush had seven, and Claudio Puelles, Rafael Fiziev, and Arman Tsarukyan each had five. The shifts demonstrate the volatility of win streaks in one of the UFC's most competitive divisions.
