After Dern debuted at No. 15 on the women’s strawweight Top 15 following her first-round submission victory over Amanda Bobby Cooper at May 12’s UFC 224 from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, a proverbial brush fire was ignited based on the fact that Dern had missed weight by an awe-inspiring seven pounds for the fight, putting her closer to flyweight than strawweight. The backlash came from both fans and fellow fighters such as strawweight competitors Felice Herrig and Angela Hill.

Apparently, the media members who vote for the highly-lambasted rankings took notice a week later, as Dern has been left off of the women’s strawweight rankings, allowing Hill to appear back on the list.

In other movement, former UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum was removed from the rankings after news arrived he had failed a USADA drug test and was facing a potential violation as his reported UFC Moscow fight with Alexey Oleynik was called off.
 
UFC rankings are so weird anyway, in or out doesn't really matter. It will attract casuals though, seeing #1, 2 or 3, but #15 or unranked is pretty whatever.
 
She's been moved to #15 Super Heavyweight.
 
Congratulations, WMMA fans.

Your irrelevant outrage has changed the meaningless rankings.

Oh, the UFC rankings, where 2 out of their 3 top three P4P are not even active fighters anymore, and require a billion of conditions meeting at the same time to get them inside the octagon..
 
Pretty lame. I’m not even a fan of dern but she won two fights in a row and bumped out hill who had never won 2 in a row in the ufc. Apparently all you have to do is get one of your friends to complain on Twitter and you get ranked again.

More like 3 out of 3 p4p is the worst.

She cheated though. That can't be brushed off. She broke the rules of the game.

Her opponents were very poor.
