Light heavyweight division lacks winning streaks with only Paulo Costa on two-fight run

An analysis of UFC divisional rankings reveals stark differences in competitive depth across weight classes. In the light heavyweight division, no fighter in the top 15 is currently on a three-fight winning streak. Only one fighter in the entire top 15 has any winning streak at all—Paulo Costa with two consecutive wins, one of which was in middleweight. This stands in sharp contrast to the welterweight division, which is widely considered the deepest and most competitive in the UFC. The data highlights the inverted nature of competition at 205 pounds compared to other divisions.
