Just curious what everyone considers the top 10 current mma organizations. I’ll keep a running point total and keep the opinions updated if a few people tap into this discussion. I use to watch rabidly but have been slacking for a few years. I have my top but those are ones I’ve seen and some may be better than I rank them because I haven’t seen much of them.
1: UFC
2: Bellator
3: PFL
4: Invicta
5: Rizin
6: One championship
7: KSW
8: LFA
9: Cage Warriors
10: M-1

On what criteria are we judging them? Level of competition? Importance of fights? Quality of matchmaking? Regional/international significance? Quality of promotion and presentation? All of the above? Or just our favourites?

My list is influenced by ease of watching so RIZIN, for instance, is a lot lower than some of you will have it.
1) UFC
2) ONE
3) Bellator
4) ACB
5) PFL
6) LFA
7) Cage Warriors
8) Invicta

seems everybody agrees that UFC, Bellator, Rizin and ACB-ACA are kings of MMA.

I hear great things about Rizin and ONE but I have no idea where to watch their events?
-
- MassaBruce
well ONE was free for awhile this year on Youtube or you could download their free app on your phone.
Rizin is PPV usually $20 bucks on Fite.tv
and it seems ACA will more than likely be PPV....hopefully they keep it around $2 bucks and find a platform that can handle all kinds of currencies and 30,000+ buyers. ACA should probably go back to Fite.TV or strike a deal with youtube.

One and Rizin are fun. Rizin has a tendency to put up the freak show fights....which I’m not opposed to.

I think on balance the promotion formerly known as ACB is penultimate only to the UFC. Only Bellator's flagship events are superior.
