Post-UFC Fight Night 85 Rankings Report

Fresh off yet another victory, Neil Magny now finds himself moving right on up in the UFC official rankings.

Magny, who bested Hector Lombard this past weekend at UFC Fight Night 85, jumped from ninth to seventh following his win. The Ultimate Fighter alum climbed ahead of both Matt Brown and Dong Hyun Kim.

Lombard fell to 14th in the division, as Albert Tumenov moved ahead of him.

Other changes happened in the bantamweight ranks, where former champion Renan Barao dropped to a tie for fourth with Aljamain Sterling. Barao is headed to featherweight for his next fight, where he will meet Jeremy Stephens. Urijah Faber and Raphael Assuncao each climbed ahead of Barao.

In the middleweight Top-10, Robert Whittaker and Gegard Mousasi are now ranked seventh and eighth, jumping ahead of Tim Kennedy.

Mark Hunt, who bested Frank Mir in the main event, slipped past Josh Barnett and into eighth. Mir did not fall from 10th despite the loss.
