There is constant debate about fighter rankings, which are normally based on voting from a panel of journalists. \u00a0Such is the case with something as subjective as voting – it’s totally based on a voter’s opinion, and biases are bound to seep through, whether intentional or not. \u00a0So to try to put a fresh, objective, data-driven spin on rankings, The MMA Manifesto has come up with a performance based ranking system, solely based on how a fighter has performed in the cage, this time for Bellator. \u00a0We’ll roll out a new weight class every Wednesday. Next up: The Women’s Flyweights.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

*stipulations: 1) any fighter currently suspended or 2) inactive for at least 12 months (without an upcoming fight scheduled) are excluded from the rankings <\/strong><\/p>\n
