With two title bouts, UFC 185 brought big changes in multiple divisions.
In the co-main event, Joanna Jedrzejczyk stopped Carla Esparza with strikes to capture the women’s strawweight championship. Having dethroned the inaugural 115-pound titleholder, Jedrzejczyk now has a chance to become the first fighter to ever defend the division’s belt.
Later on, in the main attraction, Rafael dos Anjos cruised to a decision win over Anthony Pettis. The upset really shook up the lightweight division and likely set dos Anjos up for a rematch with either Khabib Nurmagomedov or Donald Cerrone.
So, how did Saturday’s results impact dos Anjos’ and Jedrzejczyk’s positions in the UFC rankings? Here are the latest official UFC rankings, via UFC.com, which are voted on by the MMA media.
