UFC Rankings Updated: How Far Did Mark Hunt Fall?

By BJPENN.COM News - May 12, 2015

Hunt WINS

“UFC Fight Night 65” is in the books and we saw some shifts in the official UFC rankings.

Stipe Miocic’s one-sided beating of Mark Hunt did not boost him up the rankings at all as he remained ranked #4 in the division. However, Hunt suffered a drop down to #6.

Robert Whittaker, previously unranked, made his middleweight rankings debut and jumped into the 14th spot, completely knocking Brad Tavares out of the rankings.
