USA TODAY Sports/MMA Junkie rankings, June 21: New names knocking on the door of top 15
UFC on ESPN 37 was an exciting event where a number of fighters looking to crack into the top 15 made emphatic statements.
The main event saw two top 10 featherweights hope to punch their ticket to be next in line for a shot at the title. Josh Emmett emerged victorious in a razor-thin fight against Calvin Kattar. The split decision result sparked a ton of MMA judging debates, but no matter who fans may have felt won the fight, it was Emmett who walks away with the win on his record. Emmett entered the week at No. 6 and Kattar at No. 7 among featherweights, and both remain in the same slots after this bout.
A number of fighters made a strong case for consideration to enter the top 15 of their division. Adrian Yanez had the arena in Austin, Texas rocking as he put the finishing touches on Tony Kelley in their bantamweight matchup. Phil Hawes turned in a very impressive and utterly dominant performance against Deron Winn in their middleweight bout. Both fighters have entered the honorable mentions in their respective divisions.
