He's had a rough time of it, but he's been keeping his losses even with his wins. Magny's ranked wins in this same period included Neal and Rodriguez. He did fall out of the rankings after the Prates loss thoughHow was Neil Magny ranked, losing to every ranked fighter he fought for 4 years shouldn't rank you. Still ranked for beating Lawler 8 years ago?
And Morales needs to fight Jeff Neil because you do not fight just one of the Neils.Usman needs to get his Neil Magny win to get in the club.
That fight when he "beat" Garry probably promotes Garry better than him.I mean it's not the worst. Shavkat probably has a fight to promote. He even beat Garry and in his other fights he looked much better than Garry's wins. His next fight will tell us more what kind of condition he's returning in.
While I admire Garry's activity compared to the rest of the division, he's going to be last pick. I'll even say he almost lost to Prates the last round and even that MVP fight could've swung the other way, Garry really scraped by. WW is really fucked up right now, so you have to treat rankings as a transition phase right now.
Exactly. We can usually tell when the UFC does this, that the fighter rising in the ranks has an upcoming fight.I mean it's not the worst. Shavkat probably has a fight to promote.

The part that really bothers me is that the rankings move without Shavkat fighting or Garry losing.BS that Shav is ahead of Ian Garry. Ya Shav has a win over Garry, but that was in 2024. we are in 2026. Ian Garry been putting in work while Shav has done nothing as of late.
Ian Garry deserves the title shot next. Winner of Shav/Morales gets the next shot. That's how it should go.
Yeah, never rewatching the fight again, but Shavkat barely scraped by. Atleast Garry was given his rank with that fight in mind. Still did enough for the judges to give to Shavkat, so ranking makes sense. Although, I feel like an activity based ranking system would more fairly have Garry over Shavkat.That fight when he "beat" Garry probably promotes Garry better than him.
Yeah, it's used to promote the next bigger fight. If Usman gets a title shot watch him get boosted. I'm a little worried about Shavkat's return, was supposed to be end of last year, now we still don't have anything close.Exactly. We can usually tell when the UFC does this, that the fighter rising in the ranks has an upcoming fight.
This probably means Shavkat will fight soonish.
