9-0 before they gave him Pettis to fight for the title.
For example , Till is now 4-0, and Stipe got the title fight after 2-0 .

 

[Shadowthrone]

Ferg also has 9

 

[Bogeyman]

Depends if you mean UFC. Barao had something like 29 in row when he fought for the UFC title.

Assuncao has to be up there at this point, not 100% what his record is but it's gotta be close to the most wins with no title shot.

Dem days where Aldo and Barao were the best P4P fighters, oh how time has passed

Stipe got the title fight after 2-0 .

That's half the division..

Soooo the answer is yes.. Right?

To be fair Khabib was inactive a lot. Max was fighting all the time and cleared the division before getting a title shot only because Aldo pulled out

Tony?

 

[fedoriswar37]

Didnt max hold wins over half the top 10 at 1 point

Soooo the answer is yes.. Right?

Im not sure, both Ferguson and Max are at 9 , no one has more ?
so the answer is Tony & Max , longest win streak to get the title shot

 

[Irresponsible Dad]

So the Ferg fight counts even though it didn’t happen?

Also, is this ufc fights only?

What about khabib. That was a real belt?

Such a swamp of crazy lately. It’s hard to take the belt seriously.

He has a few inopportune losses. the loss to dillashaw at ufc 200 really set him back
