Disqus Comment System and Forum
2018 is a year of changes for us here at FightMatrix, and one change that most readers probably haven’t noticed (since there were only a handful of active forum users) is the disappearance of our forum.
We had to disable new user registration many months ago for technical reasons, and we now feel that the forum has outlived it’s usefulness. We also recently installed the Disqus comment and community system, so please leave us comments on our blog posts and pages! And if it’s a private matter, you can always contact us here.
ELO Is Here
As we’ve been promising for a while, the ELO and Modified ELO versions of our rankings are now publicly available!
You can read more about it here: ELO Sneak Peeks and here: Elo Rating Updates
The alternative versions of our rankings are presently only available in the current MMA ranking lists (excluding Pound-for-Pound and Division Dominance). They are not available in historical generated rankings or all-time rankings.
Also, the last/next fight, region & country, and other ranking filters are only available in standard mode. Perhaps we may support these filters in the future for the alternate ranking systems.
To view the alternate rankings, navigate to any current ranking page and select ‘ELO K-170’ or ‘Modified ELO‘ in the Rating formula drop-down under the Issue Date on the top of the ranking pages.
Here’s an example of alternate heavyweight rankings:
New Comment System
Dear Readers,
As you may or may have not noticed, we’ve switched to Disqus as our new comment system. This is just one of many incremental updates we have planned this year, to improve the user’s (Your’s!) experience. Coming up next, ELO and Modified ELO ranking systems preview, and a forum redesign.
In the meanwhile, since the forum registration is closed, if you’re having any trouble with using the new comment system, please let us know via the Contact Us form.
As always – thank you for the continued support!

All-Time MMA Rankings Updated (08-05-2018)
Notable Info
- Demetrious Johnson‘s #12 Absolute and #1 Flyweight rankings remain after his loss to Henry Cejudo. Meanwhile, Cejudo nearly doubled his All-Time Flyweight point total, moving him from #8 to #7 on the list, but remains a fair distance outside of the Top 100 Absolute.
- T.J. Dillashaw strengthens his #2 Bantamweight position and is on the cusp of entering the Top 35 Absolute list, at #36. Cody Garbrandt wards off inactivity and gets a very small temporary boost in his All-Time ratings, but this acts simply as treading water. He still remains #7 at Bantamweight and just outside of the Top 100 Absolute.
