The concept

Beat a great fighter, gain a lot. Beat a weaker fighter, gain a little. Lose to anyone and you lose points. Every UFC fight ever has been replayed through the model to produce the ratings on this page.

What the tiers mean

Elite1580+World class. Pound-for-pound territory.

Top1560–1579Title contender range. Champions live here.

Contender1540–1559Divisional threats. Top-15 caliber.

Mid1500–1539Established UFC-level fighter.

Developing<1500Still proving themselves.

What moves the rating

Finish bonusFinishes earn more

KO/TKO = 1.20× K-factor. Submission = 1.15×. Decision = 1.0×.

Recency decayOld wins fade

Fights older than ~18 months count less. The K-factor decays exponentially.

Streak multiplierMomentum matters

A 3-fight win streak boosts K by 1.30×. A 2-fight skid boosts loss K by 1.35×.

Veteran scaleChampions are harder to move

After 20 fights, K drops to 0.8× — ratings of veterans move more slowly.

Velocity bonusActive = rewarded

Each of the last 12 months' fights adds 0.08× K (capped at 1.5×).

Inactivity decaySitting out costs

After 30 months out, ELO drifts back toward 1490 — career death.

Ratings update automatically after each completed UFC event. Pre-fight predictions you see elsewhere on the site are generated by a separate ML model that uses these ratings as one of its inputs.
