Unified WMMA Rankings

May 2013 Unified Women’s MMA Rankings

The Unified Women’s Mixed Martial Arts Rankings, formerly the WAMMA Women’s Rankings, are assembled each month by a panel of journalists from multiple MMA websites and publications. These were the first official women’s mixed martial arts rankings compiled by division and weight class.

Fighters who have not competed within the past 12 months in their weight class are not eligible to be ranked. Rosi Sexton has dropped off due to inactivity in the flyweight division.

Please note: Wombat Sports is NOT a part of the panel, but endorse and use the Unified system as their primary rankings.
