UFC fighter rankings: There’s a new top contender at light heavyweight

Two things stand out about this week’s rankings coming out of UFC Vegas 13. One is that Glover Teixeira is the top contender at 205 pounds after dispatching Thiago Santos in the third round of their back-and-forth headliner. The other is how sloppy the rankings look this week. There are fighters listed multiple times, rankings going the wrong way, and fighters that are just straight omitted from the weight class they should be in.

Weird. Anyway, it’s light week for changes, So here you go.

Men’s P4P - No changes.

Heavyweight - There are only 14 heavyweights ranked for some reason.
