  • Some shows were inadvertently missed in the past few weeks, so this intermediate release acts as a catchup.  It also includes an important DEEP show that took place on Sunday, which caused some notable movement in the Flyweight rankings.

Introducing a major upgrade to our Upcoming MMA Events listing!

You can now filter the upcoming event list by organization. For example, here are all the scheduled UFC events for the next several months.

The individual event page now includes each fighter’s previous opponent, and the record over last 5 fights. It also shows a “power bar” – the relative difference in division-adjusted rating points between opponents. (The power bar is only available when both opponents are currently ranked).

Here’s a preview of tonight’s Bellator 61 in it’s full glory.

As always, thanks to all our readers, and more improvements coming soon!

Introducing a couple of new enhancements to our ranking pages:

The most recent opponent’s name and current ranking (where available) is now listed for each ranked fighter.

Also, you can now filter our rankings by the Next Fight organization, including all fighters with a scheduled fight.

For example, here are all the ranked heavyweights scheduled to make their UFC debut in the next fight.

Or, all ranked American lightweights with a scheduled bout.

Thanks to Richard Wade of Bloody Elbow for the suggestion.

More cool stuff coming in near future!

Overall (All) 43.9% 19.4% 33.8% 0.6% 2.3% 106,775

No contests excluded.  This should also settle the “which division is deepest” question.

Green signifies the highest in the division, bold signifies the division in which the outcome type is observed the most.  The underlined figure is the highest combo across the board.

Clearly there is a Japanese influence here, as their judges, especially the ones who preside over Shooto, are not afraid to score even rounds.  This increases the draws tremendously in the lower weights.

Also, the “overall (all)” statistics include bouts with no division info.  By nature of the data availability, this will include many fights from lesser organizations (more mismatches).
