UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey solidified her spot atop the women’s bantamweight division with another exciting title defense. This past Saturday at “UFC 190”, Rousey only needed thirty four seconds to send Bethe Correia crashing face first into the canvas.

As a result of the loss, Correia has dropped three spots in the rankings to number eight.

Patrick Cummins, on the other hand, was catapulted into the top ten with his victory over Rafael Cavalcante. Check out the rest of the changes since last week’s official UFC rankings below!
