JDM - Absolutely elite (obviously). We knew about the standup, but the scrambles and defensive wrestling held up a lot better than many expected. And even though he had the fight won already, made the decision to keep going at Belal to try for the finish. Man has the best attitude for the fans.

Belal - Earned respect for being tough as hell and just kept coming. He could easily have given up but kept on coming.

Shev - Shes still top of the heap, but whether its her age or other fighters getting better (or both), that gap is getting vanishingly small.

Manon - Also top of the heap, but definitely room for improvement. Seemed like she didn't want to go on the attack, was too worried about what Shev might do, rather than what she might.

Zahabi - Not top of the heap. Good, tough, but not top.

Jose - A GOAT career.
