P4P UPDATES FOR: FEBRUARY/MARCH

N/A


HOW THE RANKINGS ARE COMPILED

1. Pound-for-pound rankings and Top Five rankings are based on the last five years of a fighter's career. For P4P rankings, championships, results, etc. will only reflect that time period.

2. Activity and high-level opposition in significant fights will be considered above almost all other factors.

3. Wins over fellow P4P fighters/Top Five fighters will also be weighed considerably.

4. At the beginning of each month, the rankings will be reassessed and moves may be made based more on overall form and what seems to make the most sense for the rankings as opposed to a specific result.

However, throughout the month, moves will be immediately made if a title change occurs, a fighter leaves the division, or a ranked fighter suffers a defeat.
