Frequently Asked Questions

ELO ratings are based on wins, losses, finish bonuses, opponent quality, and title fight multipliers. The system rewards beating strong opponents and penalizes losses to lower-ranked fighters. Rankings update automatically after every UFC event.
No, these are independent performance-based rankings. Official UFC rankings use media panel voting. Our ELO system is purely data-driven and objective, providing a complementary perspective on fighter performance.
Peak ELO is the highest ELO rating a fighter has ever achieved in their career. It represents their best form. You can sort by Peak ELO to see who has reached the highest levels of performance, regardless of their current rating.
Rankings are recalculated after every UFC event. Each fight result triggers an ELO adjustment for both fighters involved, so the rankings always reflect the most recent results.
