Though Urijah Faber is booked to face Dominick Cruz, and Brian Bowles is out with an injury, the rest of the Top 10 is set to face each other over the next couple of months to determine who will be next in line, and who will merely be “in the mix.” Renan Barao, Scott Jorgensen, Michael McDonald, and Ivan Menjivar all sport undefeated UFC records, and three of these men compete this month. Miguel Torres, the former titleholder whose only UFC loss is a disputed one to Demetrious Johnson, is probably the front runner, even after his controversial release and return. The aforementioned Johnson, as well as Joseph Benavidez, are currently leading a Flyweight exodus, so the division, flush with talent after TUF 14, may experience a bit of instability as talent migrates to 125. Regardless, we’ll have a better sense of this division come March 1.

Note that these are not the official MMA Ratings divisional rankings. These UFC Power Rankings are intended to indicate where UFC fighters in each division rank in relation to one another. Taking into account wins, losses, quality of opposition, nature of wins/losses, and the recency of those wins/losses, it is meant to illustrate who fits where in each division, and which fighters’ stocks are rising and falling.
