Comparison: Sherdog vs. Fight Matrix – All-Time Top Female Fighters
In case you missed it, Sherdog presented an article of the Top 10 Female MMA Fighters of All-Time
The names are similar, but they certainly differ from our All-Time Rankings
Sherdog #10 – Tara LaRosa (Fight Matrix – #6)
Although never officially fighting the UFC, LaRosa’s ledger is one of the most impressive in the history of the female side of the sport. She managed to catch on in many different organizations to get (mostly) quality fights and compile a 22-5 record in doing so. Her most recent fight against Modafferi was a disaster and she’s probably far beyond her prime, but she’s easily one of the very best few before the Rousey/Cyborg era.
FightMatrix #10 – Jessica Aguilar (Sherdog – Unranked)
Sherdog #9 – Amanda Nunes (Fight Matrix – #19)
She’s more than likely going to quickly rise up our list with time, but this seems a little premature. Champions who win a major belt and don’t successfully defend, seem like a group that grows with each UFC event. If she gets Rousey next, it could be a very short stay at the top of the division.
FightMatrix #9 – Jennifer Howe (Sherdog – Unranked)
Biggest Risers in Current MMA Rankings Update (08-07-2016)
Fight Matrix updates the Current MMA Rankings once a week. As the deepest and most inclusive ranking system in the sport, fights all over the globe can have a major impact on the rankings. Let’s take a look at the biggest risers in the divisional rankings. The number in parenthesis is the number of spots that the fighter moved up from the last issued rankings. For the purpose of this article, fighters who were unranked in the previous ranking iteration are excluded.
Heavyweight
DJ Linderman #78 (116)
After dropping back-to-back fights, Linderman got back on track with a decision victory over Derrick Mehmen. Mehmen’s original opponent Jack May dropped out with an injury, so Linderman took the fight on short notice. The Bellator and World Series of Fighting veteran now holds a 20-11 record.
HM: Justin Ledet #137 (89)
Light Heavyweight
Ednaldo Oliveira #173 (60)
Since leaving the UFC in 2013, Oliveira has gone 2-1. After losing to Mikhail Mokhnatkin, he rebounded nicely with a decision victory over Khristhian da Silva Oliveira on July 30.
Middleweight
Markus Perez Echeimberg #157 (91)
Echeimberg moved up 91 spots in the middleweight rankings after receiving credit for his June 25 victory over UFC veteran Paulo Thiago. The prospect is now 7-0 after beginning his professional career in 2013.
HM:Trevor Smith #50 (23)
Welterweight
Thiago Oliveira #289 (133)
Oliveira earned credit for his May 14 victory over Sergio Mesquita and bumped up 133 spots. He is now riding a seven-fight winning streak that dates back to 2012. The Gracie Barra Bahia product now holds a 12-3 record as a professional.
