Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) made a few modifications to its official rankings this week, and two of the biggest changes came from fighters who did not compete at UFC Chile last weekend on FOX Sports 1.

Kamaru Usman is up, Demian Maia is down, for those of you who care about what’s happening in the 170-pound weight class.

The bigger story is Mackenzie Dern getting booted from the strawweight list, following fan (and fighter) backlash over her inability to make the 115-pound limit for her fight against Amanda Bobby Cooper at UFC 224 earlier this month in Brazil, yet earning a spot among the division’s elite anyway.

I think the rankings board got the message.

Elsewhere on the charts, former UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum lost his place in the heavyweight line up — and a possible main event in Moscow — after failing a drug test with United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA).

Here’s how the rankings work, courtesy of UFC.com:

Rankings were generated by a voting panel made up of media members. The media members were asked to vote for who they feel are the top fighters in the UFC by weight-class and pound-for-pound. A fighter is only eligible to be voted on if they are in active status in the UFC. A fighter can appear in more than one weight division at a time. The champion and interim champion are considered to be in the top positions of their respective divisions and therefore are not eligible for voting by weight-class. However, the champions can be voted on for the pound-for-pound rankings.

Take a look at what the latest rankings field looks like courtesy of UFC.com. Note: (+/- = movement in rankings, *NR = Not previously ranked).

There you have it.

You can expect these standings to change -- particularly in the welterweight division -- in roughly one week, as the promotion is set to uncork its UFC Fight Night 130: “Thompson vs. Till” mixed martial arts (MMA) event on Sun., May 27, 2018 inside Echo Arena in Liverpool, England (more on that fight card here).
