Pound-for-Pound: My take on the UFC’s pound-for-pound rankings

Kyle Appleby November 4, 2024
Ilia Topuria’s recent win at UFC 308 didn’t move him in the UFC’s rankings, which makes me wonder what changes I’d make if I had that kind of power. Often determining matchups and used to debate legacies, the UFC rankings are always in the spotlight. I’ve ranked every champion in the UFC below, plus some non-champs I might add if I were to rank 15 fighters as the UFC does.
