Dolidze overtakes Costa in middleweight rankings; Costa debuts at No. 7 in light heavyweight

The UFC has updated its official rankings with several notable changes. Roman Dolidze has moved ahead of Paulo Costa in the middleweight rankings following Dolidze's successful light heavyweight debut. Costa defeated the sixth-ranked light heavyweight Azamat Murzakanov in his 205-pound debut and immediately entered the light heavyweight rankings at number seven. Arman Tsarukyan also rose two spots in the pound-for-pound rankings, humorously noted as being due to victories in wrestling and grappling tournaments. Aaron Pico has entered the top 15 at featherweight, and Josh Hewitt debuts directly at number five in the heavyweight rankings.
