1. 1

   

   Leon Edwards

   "Rocky"

   22-3-0, 1 NC

   Hell of a win v Colby. Just had him absolutely shook from the first punch.
   

2. 2

   

   Shavkat Rakhmonov

   "Nomad"

   18-0-0

   This kid is ready for a title shot.
   

3. 3

   

   Belal Muhammad

   "Remember the Name"

   23-3-0, 1 NC

   Belal is ready for a title shot. But he's going to have to wait or take another fight.
   

4. 4

   

   Gilbert Burns

   "Durinho"

   22-7-0

   Burns is on fire the last two years. Hoping we see him v Belal for a true No.1 contender fight.
   

5. 5

   

   Geoff Neal

   "Handz of Steel"

   15-6-0

   Great showing by Neal, even if he took a Loss. Neal's striking is something that will keep him in the top 10 for a long time.
   

6. 6

   

   Stephen Thompson

   "Wonderboy"

   17-7-1

   Tough loss for Wonderboy. But he's shown to be competitive even this late in his career.
   

7. 7

   

   Sean Brady

   16-1-0

   Brady's lack of a gas tank finally caught up with him. He's young, but lots of time needs to be put into he's deficiency in the standup game.
   

8. 8

   

   Colby Covington

   "Chaos"

   17-4-0

   A clown showing and a clown in general. Colby's time as a title challenger ended in the most Colby way possible. Never had a meaningful win over his UFC career vs a top 10 WW in their prime. A joke of a human as well. Can't wait to never see him in a UFC octagon again.
   

9. 9

   

   Ian Machado Garry

   "The Future"

   14-0-0

   Welcome to the top 10 Mr. Garry, I was a doubter and now I'm excited for his next fight.
   

10. 10

    

    Vicente Luque

    "The Silent Assassin"

    22-10-1

    Luque time as a top 5 fighter at 170 seems to be dwindling. Lots of fun fights, but sadly doubt he gets to the level of a title challenger.
    

11+

11. 11

    

    Jack Della Maddalena

    17-2-0

    A hyper prospect who is setting himself up for a big 2023.
    

12. 12

    

    Kevin Holland

    "Trailblazer"  |  25-11-0, 1 NC

    Holland really shocked me vs Chiesa. His fight with Maddalena will tell us if he's actually ready for a run at 170/
    

13. 13

    

    Michael Chiesa

    "Maverick"  |  16-7-0

    Chiesa 170 run has been hit and miss. Until he beats a top 10 guy I can't see him ever being a title challenger.
    

14. 14

    

    Neil Magny

    "Haitian Sensation"  |  29-11-0

    Magny is the gatekeeper of 170. He's always game and is a tough task for anyone.
