Fightmatrix.com MMA rankings are now officially recognized by the North American Boxing Council (http://nabc.net/)
A word from the NABC President:
The NABC was the first boxing organization to sanction a MMA title fight when Jessie Chilton defeated Eddie Sanchez at Legends of Fighting 8 in Indianapolis to win the NABC 185lb MMA championship. NABC mixed martial arts championship matches have also been held by California Xtreme Fighting and have been televised on the HDNet cable channel and on Cage Fury Fighting Championships pay per view broadcasts.
The NABC has never charged MMA promoters or fighters for sanctioning title matchs. Our revenue model is based on sponsorships which allows us to bring greater exposure to fighters at no cost to them.
Your creation of an unbiased computerized MMA ratings system which isn’t influenced by promotions or broadcasters is another step to provide exposure to fighters at no cost to them and I’ll help pass the word along that it should be recognized as an official ranking.
Best Regards,
Ed Hutchison
President, NABC
Thanks Mr. Hutchison & NABC!

Kudos guys. Very well done. I do have some serious issues with some of your rankings. As you are well aware of. But honestly, and I mean honestly. For the most part I would have to say you have the best overall rankings I have seen besides my own LOL.
