UFC rankings update: Derek Brunson, Jennifer Maia make climbs

Derek Brunson, UFC Rankings

The official UFC rankings have been updated in the wake of last weekend’s UFC on ESPN+ 31 card, and as always, there have been some significant changes.

Most notably, long-time UFC middleweight contender Derek Brunson has taken a nice climb up his division’s rankings after springing the upset on the formerly unbeaten Edmen Shahbazyan in the card’s main event.

The other biggest mover in the latest UFC rankings was flyweight contender Jennifer Maia, who unlocked a shot at the division’s champion Valentina Shevchenko with a submission defeat of Joanna Calderwood.

See the updated UFC rankings below (via MMA Mania):
