Thank you for your comment, it is always greatly appreciated for any feedback, especially coming from one of my long-term readers. I did struggle with placing McMann over Tate, so it is certainly up for debate. At this point, based off the Carmouche fight, I had to slightly penalize her for nearly giving away the 1st & 2nd rounds. I do think Tate performed very well against Rousey. As for Carmouche, she’s 1-3 in her last 4. Kedzie just lost back-to-back fights to very poor competition, and was 0-4 in her last 4 fights. Tate was very competitive in her losses, but close wins over Kedzie and Carmouche just weren’t enough. I realize McMann looked bad against Rousey, but she’s looked decent against everyone else. It could be argued that Tate lost rounds 1 & 2.īased off Tate’s last 5 fights vs. Yet, after watching Tate’s recent performance against Carmouche, I was very underwhelmed with her wrestling in the first 2 rounds. As you may have noticed I was one of the only sites around that had Tate ranked above McMann prior to UFC on FOX 11. I 100% understand where you are coming from. A fighter has signed or re-signed with the UFC, but have yet to officially fight in the UFC. Should a fighter be suspended for performance enhancing substances or fighter conduct, they will be removed from the rankings. If the fighter temporarily competed outside of their division, they will be ranked in their primary division unless the fighter states different. Upon their debut, they will be removed from their former weight class. A fighter must debut in their new weight class in order to officially be ranked there. Reasons a fighter is ineligible for UFC Rankings = Fighter moves down in the rankings after recent fight = Fighter moves up in the rankings after recent fight If a fighter fairs well against a higher-ranked adversary, they could still move up in the rankings.Īctual fight footage is reviewed, regardless of promotion in order to formulate our rankings.

If a fighter has fought elite competition and fallen short, we factor in how they performed. If a fighter has compiled a bunch of wins against competition that is lackluster they will likely have a difficult time moving up in the rankings until they face stiffer competition in order for us to accurately predict how they would perform against exceedingly tougher competition. Something we take into consideration is the strength of competition they have faced.

There are many fighters sporting undefeated records from developing fight scenes, especially abroad. Estimated ability against future competition Here is the rankings criteria that encompasses a fighter ranking: From there, tiers are created and fighters are ranked from within those tiers.
