Analysis reveals light heavyweight has weakest winning streaks among UFC divisions

A statistical analysis examining winning streaks across UFC weight classes revealed striking disparities, with light heavyweight showing the weakest momentum among all divisions. The data tracked how many fighters in each division's top-15 and top-5 rankings are currently on three-fight winning streaks or better, excluding champions. Light heavyweight had zero fighters on three-fight winning streaks in its top-15, and only one fighter with any winning streak at all: Paulo Costa, whose streak includes a victory earned at middleweight. In contrast, welterweight is currently considered the most competitive and deepest division. The analysis suggests light heavyweight has an inverted competitive structure compared to other weight classes, raising questions about divisional depth and activity levels.
