Since we posted the TUF 9 rankings, I figured it’d be interesting to follow the results… just to see how off (or on) we are. There have definitely been some “bracket busters” in the Welterweight division, but the Lightweights are performing as expected.

  I seem to recall one of the fighters saying on the show that he had lived in America for the past several years, but he was born in the UK and would be fighting on their team. That might be the source of confusion. I can’t remember who it was, though.

  Are James and Wilks American? That seems odd.

Before asking where a specific fighter is ranked or why they aren't ranked: - We update the rankings once per week, usually on Sunday or Monday. - Fighters who have not fought in 450 days or more ARE NOT RANKED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. - Use the "Fighter Search" option in the upper-right of the page. The fighter may be ranked in a different division. - Most of the divisions have multiple pages beyond this one. See the clickable ranges above and below the ranking table. Furthermore, we do not maintain the "next fight" data. This is gathered from Sherdog. Any issues regarding this data should be forwarded to them.
