    Sorry, recapping since it looks like double-commenting replaces the old comment:

    Jeremy Stephens went from 281 to 1466 lightweight without fighting, what’s up with that?

    Sorry I didn’t mean unranked because it hasn’t been that long since his last fight, but going from 281 to last place without fighting is strange

    Jeremy Stephens #1466 lightweight: bug? He was #281 in the January quarterly ranking. He should be unranked for inactivity, not at last place
