USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA rankings, Oct. 2: Will lightweight pecking order shift at UFC 229?
Plenty is on the line in the lightweight division on Saturday.
Lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov (26-0 MMA, 10-0 UFC) takes on former two-division champ Conor McGregor (21-3 MMA, 9-1 UFC) in the UFC 229 main event. McGregor used to rule the roost at 155 pounds, but now that’s Nurmagomedov’s home spot – and McGregor wants it back.
A McGregor win would mean another changing of the guard at the top of the 155-pound division. It also almost certainly would mean some shuffling in the men’s pound-for-pound rankings after UFC 229 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
And don’t forget, ranked lightweights Tony Ferguson (23-3 MMA, 13-1 UFC) and Anthony Pettis (21-7 MMA, 8-6 UFC) fight each other on the card. And we could see movement at heavyweight, light heavyweight, flyweight and much more.
This past weekend, Gegard Mousasi picked up a huge win over Rory MacDonald to retain his middleweight title – but there’s just no room for Mousasi to move up. Ahead of UFC 229, and after Bellator 206, check out the rankings in all the divisions above.
