  1. Thonolan Says:

    Matt, I don’t think that’s what JCS is saying at all…

  2. Matt509 Says:

    So your sayignt hat someone like Megumi is kinda screwed at being #1 unless Kaufman or Cyborg lose?

    Im not complaining about your rule system for the womens, because I would do the exact same thing, but would kinda suck to be in a position as Megumi would be in here.

  3. jcs Says:

    To be fair, the women division is our least scientific as we don’t separate by weight class. You have to figure that the women are given points based on the division they usually fight in.. so if Kaufman/Cyborg fight at 145, you have to favor Cyborg if their points are even.

  4. Mike T Says:

    Cyborg and Kaufman even…haha will be funny if Kaufman even trys to fight Cyborg!

  5. Matt Says:

    How is Megumi not ranked higher than Kaufman? I might even ahve her ranked higher than Cyborg.

  6. Matt Says:

    Hell I think Cyborg can beat some men at her weight class.

  7. Matt Says:

    Cyborg is a man. Sorry to everyone who had a crush on her…. :(

  8. jcs Says:

    All active fighters are ranked unless they suffer definitively career ending injures or die.

  9. Manx Says:

    Miku Matsumoto recently announced her retirement from fighting and should no longer be ranked…right?!?

  10. tomb Says:

    maybe this can help

  11. jcs Says:

    We have very little weight class info for women’s bouts.. this is why they are lumped together.

  12. tom Says:

    seeing as you put all the weight classes for females together how about putting their weight class in parenthesis so you can tell were they stand as fujii will never fight santos because of the weight difference.

  13. debbie Says:

    Evinger is not inactive no one with a record will fight her that sucks

  14. jcs Says:

    Evinger is INACTIVE, and therefore not ranked.

  15. Michelle Says:

    Tonya evinger beat kedzie and Schneider so that shows the illegitimacy of this ranking

  16. Colin Says:

    Aisling Daly is Irish – not British – suggest you change the flag associated with her.

  17. jcs Says:

    Tavares has been inactive for over 15 months.

    Dandois is higher than Sexton because frankly, her one win is of higher quality than any of Sexton’s. She also has no defeats. Handling the insertion of debuting fighters that have impressive wins is a difficult task. I will take a closer look.

  18. jon Says:

    Why isn’t Ana Michelle Tavares on the list?

  19. Ian Dean Says:

    How can Cindy Dandois 1-0 be higher than rosi sexton 10-1 ?

  20. LOCO-PLATA Says:

    Cyborg and Carano need to fight already!!!

  21. Justin Gould Says:

    #39 Jessica’s last name is spelled “Bednark” not “Bednarek”. It has been a common mistake on some MMA websites.
