Um how the hell is Amanda Nunes not on the list, yet all the women she's beaten at bantamweight are? I'll state right off the bat I am not a fan of Nunes,  but even i know she is better than Rousey, Holm, Tate etc.

Must be an error, she is defending her title against Pena so she's still active double champ. Not sure. She is the best women's MMA fighter ever.

I think they only allow a fighter to be ranked at the last weight they fought at.

I had the same issue with Adesanya when he went to LHW. This is an admin's response "Our rankings only allow a fighter to be in 1 class at a time."

"Our rankings only allow a fighter to be in 1 class at a time."


That's really stupid seeing that there are people who have titles in more than one weight class at a time. I think it should be changed to being able to rank them in any weight class they have fought at.

...within a reasonable amount of time. Yes, sir, I agree.

At least make an exception for current titleholders. It's rather silly to have Amanda Nunes unranked at featherweight - and REALLY silly to have Izze unranked at middleweight, as he was for a while.

@stuthehistoryguy

I agree about the only being able to rank them in that devision if they have fought in that devision within however many years as otherwise you'd end up with some really inaccurate rankings. Having said that, if you could rank them in any devision they have ever fought in, then it would be funny to see where Rumble Johnson falls in people's Welterweight rankings lol!
