UFC fighter rankings: Conor McGregor moves up on three different lists
It only took 40 seconds for Conor McGregor to shake up the UFC rankings. His quick TKO victory over Donald Cerrone came at welterweight, which allowed him to the enter the rankings in that division. This also led to him moving up on the pound-for-pound list, and oddly enough, at lightweight as well.
In terms of other fighters, Diego Ferreira’s big win saw him jump into the lightweight rankings, while Askar Askarov may be the newest contender at flyweight.
Here’s a look at all the changes coming out of UFC 246.
P4P - Conor is up two spots to 11. That drops Valentina Shevchenko and Max Holloway one each to 12 and 13. Dustin Poirier and Tyron Woodley flip-flop the 14 and 15 spots.
