UFC Rankings: Belal Muhammad Edges Closer to Jon Jones, Topuria in P4P List

UFC WW champ Belal Muhammad toppled Sean O'Malley in the latest P4P change.

The men's pound-for-pound rankings saw one change: Belal Muhammad is now the No. 5 spot, moving Sean O'Malley down to No. 6. Muhammad now sits one spot below Ilia Topuria and two below Jon Jones. This might come as a shock to fans, seeing as O'Malley has defended his title with only one injury-based blemish on his record.

Umar Nurmagomedov scored a hard-fought victory against Cory Sandhagen in the main event of UFC Abu Dhabi, and now he's reaping the rewards. Rising eight spots, he is no No. 2 at bantamweight and will surely face the winner of O'Malley-Dvalishvili later this year. Sandhagen drops two spots to No. 4.Also at bantamweight, Deiveson Figueiredo has risen one spot to No. 5, pushing Marlon Vera down three spots to No. 7 in the process.
