UFC Rankings Update: Valentina Shevchenko Passes Conor McGregor On P4P List

UFC Rankings Update

We have a new UFC rankings update to pass along after this past weekend’s UFC Mexico City event.

The event was rather uneventful, with the main event ending in extremely disappointing fashion, as Yair Rodriguez eye poked Jeremy Stephens in just 15 seconds, ending the bout and resulting in a No Contest. Now, in the new UFC rankings update (H/T MMA Mania), UFC women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko has passed up Conor McGregor on the pound-for-pound rankings list.

Check out the UFC rankings update below.
