A division where a decorated champion still reigns while an unbeaten wave and hungry contenders crowd the top ten.
The UFC featherweight ladder is one of the deepest lists in the sport right now, and it starts with a familiar name. Alexander Volkanovski (28-4-0) of Australia sits on the throne, and one look at that record tells the story: 28 wins against just four losses is the kind of resume you build over years of beating the best the division can offer. He is the reference point everyone else is measured against.
But the chase behind him is what makes this ranking so much fun to argue about.
The most striking name in the pack is #1 Movsar Evloev (20-0-0) of Russia. Twenty fights, zero losses. In a division this stacked, staying perfect is a statement, and a spotless record at the number one spot puts him a single step from a title shot. If you are looking for the clearest storyline in the division, it is right here: the unbeaten #1 versus the proven champion.
Just behind him, #2 Diego Lopes (28-8-0) of Brazil brings a huge fight count and 28 career wins of his own, matching the champion’s win total. At #3, Lerone Murphy (17-1-1) of England carries a record with just one loss, another fighter who has barely tasted defeat.
That is three of the top three names with either zero or one loss. The intrigue at the summit is real.
The middle of the top ten is where experience meets ambition:
Deeper in the rankings, the newer blood is worth tracking:
Stack it all up and the picture is clear. At the very top you have a champion with a title-tested record, an undefeated #1 knocking on the door, and a #2 and #3 who have barely lost. Sprinkle in a former titleholder at #4 and a near-perfect prospect at #9, and you have a division where almost every fight could reshuffle the order.
This is exactly the kind of ranking that rewards paying attention. Follow the featherweights over the next few cards, watch how the undefeated names hold up against the veterans, and build your bracket for the division’s upcoming fights. Lock in your picks, back your reads, and see who your instincts trust when the top of this list finally collides.
