The latest MMAWeekly World MMA Rankings were released on Wednesday, June 6th. This system ranks the top ten MMA fighters from all across the world in each of the five major weight classes, as voted on by MMAWeekly.

We take into consideration a fighter's performance in addition to his win-loss record, head-to-head and common opponents, difficulty of opponents, and numerous other factors in what is the most comprehensive rankings system in the sport.

Fighters who are under drug-related suspensions are not eligible for top ten consideration. Here are the current MMAWeekly World MMA Rankings, which are up-to-date as of June 6th.

Rampage goes from 8 to 2 after knocking out Chuck Liddell, who falls to number 3.

But Matt Serra knocks out GSP, (BOTH FIGHTS IN ONE ROUND) and was never ranked, then skyrockets to #1 in the world, while GSP goes to 2.

Sorry but until someone can explain how rampage goes up to 2, but Serra gets #1 when he wasn't even in the top 10 to begin with, I will never look up these rankings.
