Im sure most will agree the rankings in place for all Orgs are woefully out of date, inaccurate and generally poorly maintained. I have approached most of the main orgs for some time requesting updates motivated by my desire to promote worthwhile title fights on my shows but to no avail.

So.... rather than bitch and moan on here i have tried to do somthing about it, for a while i was assisting Daz Philips with the UKMF rankings but with recent events and sheer frustration he has handed the batton over to me (Dont think anyone can blame him and i thank him for his assistance).

Now its not that im not concerned with recent events but i personally think that its easy to dismiss somthing rather than try to fix it, so i will be Administering the rankings for the UKMF from now.

After many conversations and with the interest of transparency i will initialy set the rankings using the very little information i have recieved from promoters re results, time consuming google searches and whats held by the Org. Once this is done and im sure debated very positivly on here :) I will be assisted by Dave Croft and Craig Jose, hopefully it will be kept simple with fighters beating each other to move up and down the table with any issues being ratified by the three of us thus leaving no individual the power to manipulate the rankings.

I hope people get behind this in the spirit it is being set up, lets face it recognition by your peers is pretty much all you can expect to recieve until the millions role into the sport :)

Thanks in advance for the support.
