Lightweight division's active win streaks show dramatic changes over two years

A comparison of the longest active winning streaks in the UFC lightweight division shows significant evolution over the past two years. Currently, Islam Makhachev leads with 15 wins, followed by several fighters with shorter streaks. One year ago, Makhachev had 14 wins with Paddy Pimblett second at six. Two years ago, Makhachev had 12 wins, with Renato Moicano and Pimblett tied at five, and Arman Tsarukyan at four. In April 2022, Charles Oliveira led with 10 wins, Makhachev had nine, Beneil Dariush had seven, and three fighters including Tsarukyan were at five. The data illustrates the volatility of streaks in the division and how quickly the competitive landscape shifts, with many fighters from previous lists no longer appearing in current rankings.
