Global-MMA Ranking Rules
*This ranking system includes fighters that are not under exclusive contract to the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).
*Top level fighters that leave the UFC may be ranked in subsequent rankings.
*Fighters that sign exclusively to the UFC will be removed from the rankings.
*Rankings are based on a fighter's overall career results and recent performance.
*A fighter will be ranked number one if he defeats the number one ranked fighter in the weight division except under certain rare circumstances where the number two ranked fighter clearly deserves to move into the number one ranking position.
*Victories over highly ranked fighters and losses against non-ranked opponents have a larger effect on the fighters ranking position.
*A fighter will not necessarily take the place of his opponent in the rankings after a victory or a loss.
* A fighter can move up a maximum of three spots with impressive victories over a fighter ranked below him; however, there is no limit if the fighter earned a title or a tournament championship with the victory.
* An unranked newly crowned champion who earned a title in a major league MMA promotion can enter the top ten even with a victory over an unranked fighter.
*A fighter will drop in the rankings if he does not fight regularly against high level competition.
*A top ten ranked fighter can become ranked in another weight division after one or more wins in his new weight class.
*A fighter can be ranked in two different weight divisions.
*Champions and fighters from prominent promotions will have an advantage over champions and fighters from promotions with lesser competition.
*A fighter will be removed from the rankings if he does not fight for two years.
*Fighters that are signed to multiple promotions will have their promotions listed based on the following criteria: 1) championship held in a promotion, 2) predominant promotion the fighter fights in, 3) promotion
last fought in.
*Rankings will be updated every month.

HW and LHW are getting very interesting thanks to Bellator/Rizin/ONE. The market is recovering from the (artificial) monopoly years.
Thanks. I agree, if Mo continues to fight at HW he will have to be considered for top 10 as you suggest.
Great point on Kirill as well. I just listed him in a separate file I keep on my PC for future potential contenders. That was a big win over Huggy Bear so will definitely have to keep an eye out on him. Another good win like that could get him added to the HW contenders.

Rampage/Kirill is a very interesting fight, kind of along the lines of Wand/Baruto type interesting. These would be real solid open round GP fights. I'd like to see Kirill continue to step up in competition as well. Toyota from DEEP was OK and then Huggy Bear was a good step up and a nice win.

Combat Sambo is such a great primer for mma. Really it is mma, on a mat, in a gi and headgear.
Nurmy has 2 golds, Fedor has 4, Kirill got 5 world golds and a silver in the last six years. Plus 4 Euro and 4 Russian golds. Badass shit. He was a top prospect who didn't pan all the way out and now he's back from his break a changed fighter. Like RussianBabyGandalfFedor.
To me he's the hottest HW prospect in mma.

Combat sambo is the best martial art for MMA, I agree. It is similar and the Russian fighters really show how to use that art with the transitioning from striking to grappling.
That is impressive for Kirill. I didn't realize he won all those medals in sambo. I knew he had some. Would be nice to see him do well in RIZIN.

TeamFedor has some talent, even though Askren just beat one. Askren is a genius so no shame ghere. Fans that wonder why Fedor didn't sign with the UFC need look no further than Fedor and his team with nonexclusive contracts.Combat sambo is the best martial art for MMA, I agree.

That is impressive for Kirill. I didn't realize he won all those medals in sambo. I knew he had some. Would be nice to see him do well in RIZIN.
Now even signed, promotions have to compete for their services. That's boss level shit. If Fedor wants, he can take the Glorious Retirement Tour of Absolute Victory almost anywhere he wants, and his team comes with. He is fulfilling his stated goal of furthering Russian martial arts. Truly the GOAT in temperament, resume, humility, business and structural importance*

They are setting a really good example for other fighters. You're right, they can compete at RIZIN, Fight Nights, Bellator, ABC, or anywhere else that allows non-exclusive contracts. They are paving the way nicely for other fighters to follow suit.
Great points!

Great points!
Bellator got the hottest prospect in the sport greco/freestyle/folkstyle/boxing monster Aaron Pico being flexible. Go wrestle, then we're there for you. They got other hot wrestling prospects too.
Kharitonov, Wandy, both non exclusive.
Rizin won the Fedor sweepstakes with the whole world bidding
Got Bendo as the world bid.
Bellator kickboxing now lets the roster that is exclusive cross over "in house".
Joe Schilling is coming over from Glory, because he sees what's up.
Fedor always wielded his leverage. He sat out the monopoly years, and viola returns right as things heat up. Some fighters opt for long contracts Andy, Werdum, RDA, DC, Conor etc but they're locking themselves into a one sided arrangement, in a growing market. They can be cut, but they can't themselves leave.
If their stock falls, they can't count on future fights, if it rises they're capping their money. Fedor can basically do what he wants. No other mma superstar can say that.

It is a great selling point for those orgs. Fighters like the flexibility of having their own sponsors, being able to box, kickbox, fight in Japan or US, fight in big Japan GPs on NYE, and try to get big money fights outside the org.
The Bellator signings recently have been very impressive. They picked up some really good fighters and big names recently.
Shilling cross-over is interesting. I hope we see a lot more kickboxing/MMA cross-overs back and forth. Those are two great combat sports and many solid fighters can adapt well to both.
Fedor always has been a trend setter in this sport. He refuses to sign that UFC contract which locks him down, his likeness, and everything else forever. I don't see him ever signing that contract. I could see him maybe doing a one off fight there as a retirement fight but I don't think he will ever sign the UFC contract the way it is written.

If Conor were in Fedor's position, he could go box Mayweather for an enormous pile of cash. He was offered 2mil to fight on the Fedor FightNights card as well. GSP could go fight Askren in ONE in a superfight, or take bids from Bellator. These other star fighters wish they had Fedor's pull.CDF47 wrote:

Fighters should plan for the future, haggling more, for shorter deals.
Werdum signed long term, and got a mil+ to fight Stipe, but now he's lost, the biggest $ fight for him is Fedor, but he's more than 5 fights IIRC away from being his own man.

Yeah, Conor could have made huge money on that Mayweather fight if he had the Fedor type contract and he was able to get this big a name from an org. which allows this in their contracts, which hopefully RIZIN and other orgs. will be able to do in the future.
That's right, GSP is locked into a UFC contract forever, no matter how long he is retired because he retired with the UFC belt.
MMA at least needs some aspects of the Ali Act to prevent such never ending contracts. Until then, hopefully these other orgs. will be able to financially compete with the UFC, as they have been recently, and add incentive with open sponsors and non-exclusive contracts or non-exclusive contracts with restrictions (champions clauses, approved fights outside the org., matching rights,...). I like the non-exclusive contract deal which still allows the promoter some control to keep champions with matching rights and possibly approve of some outside fights,... I think these types of contracts are real good for both the fighter and the promoter, and the sport as a whole.

I saw an article on Bloodyelbow suggesting Conor might be able to fight Mayweather, by applying for and getting a boxing license then challenging his UFC contract under the Ali Act, applying for relief when they inevitably get a temporary injunction (like Rampage did to fight Maldonado).
I'll dig it up.

I read that article as well. That was interesting one. The lawyer in the article that came up with that plan (even though he said it was risky and no guarantee) seemed really smart to think of all that. It made sense but could be difficult and time consuming. For that much money though, Conor and Mayweather may attempt it.

Was surprised to see Palhares lose to a relatively unknown fighter. That was a huge loss. I guess after trying to injure fighters in the ring a bit of a fall is justified.

he's beaten way better guys and askren grapple fuck koreshev so bad and exposed his 0 ground game.
