Following UFC Fight Night 48, it didn’t look like the UFC rankings would be shaken up too much.

Middleweight contender Michael Bisping disposed of unranked former Strikeforce champion Cung Le in the main attraction. Similarly, Tyron Woodley steamrolled Dong Hyun Kim, who was ranked lower than him in the welterweight division.

Then, UFC Fight Night 49 came on Saturday evening and caused all kinds of chaos.

Thales Leites knocked out Francis Carmont, who was ranked three positions higher than the Brazilian heading into the weekend. Unranked welterweight Jordan Mein likely bounced Mike Pyle from the ranking with a knockout victory of his own. Finally, and most surprisingly, Rafael dos Anjos stunned former lightweight champion Benson Henderson in the headlining matchup.

What movement has all this caused in the Top 15 rankings? Here are the latest official UFC rankings via UFC.com, which are voted on by various members of the MMA media.
