Men’s Pound for Pound: After winning the vacant light heavyweight championship at UFC 283, Jamahal Hill debuts on the pound-for-pound rankings list at #13 while his fellow title-winner at the pay-per-view, Brandon Moreno, shot up six positions to #9.
Despite Hill’s title win, former champion Ji?í Procházka is still ranked three spots above him at #10, though the Czech did move down one position behind Moreno.
Due to his loss to Moreno in the co-main event, Deiveson Figueiredo fell five spots down to #15. Also moving down the rankings this week are Dustin Poirier (#12) and Robert Whittaker (#14). Also, after news of his impending return at UFC 285 was confirmed, Jon Jones moved up one spot in the rankings to #11.
