UFC recently wrapped up Fight Night 161 that saw Joanna Jedrzejczyk get a big unanimous decision victory over Michelle Waterson at the end of the five-round fight.
The card also featured a big upset as Cub Swanson ended the undefeated streak of Kron Gracie in the co-main event of the evening.
Ranked #5 before the fight, Joanna's win was expected to give her a push up the rankings, however, the former Women's Strawweight Champion just gained one spot to go up to #4.
Despite the loss, Waterson didn't slide down the rankings and is currently tied at #7.
Elsewhere in the Women's Strawweight division, Amanda Ribas entered the top 15 after her win over Mackenzie Dern.
In the Flyweight division, Brandon Moreno, Kai Kara France and Rogerio Bontorin jumped a few spots as well.
