Following his loss to Sean Strickland at UFC 328, Khamzat Chimaev has fallen seven positions in the UFC pound-for-pound rankings, now sitting at No. 10. The updated top ten features Islam Makhachev at No. 1, followed by Ilia Topuria, Alex Volkanovski, Alex Pereira, Petr Yan, Tom Aspinall, and a tie between Merab Dvalishvili and Sean Strickland at No. 7. Joshua Van rounds out the top nine ahead of Chimaev. This represents a significant drop for Chimaev, who was previously ranked third in the pound-for-pound list before his defeat.
