My MMA Rankings
Current Best Pound for Pound MMA Fighters
This disregards the "greatness of their body of work" type of nonsense, as well as any internal politics of the UFC, etc...just straight up who is actually the best right now, adjusted for their size & the weight class where they fight. This might seem to overrate many relative newcomers, but this ranks the fighters where they would fit in a hypothetical "everyone has fought everyone" fantasy (with a p4p adjustment).
