Most weeks ranked in the UFC

What counts. Distinct weeks: a fighter ranked in two divisions on the same Tuesday is ranked for one week, not two. Champion weeks are included — the champion line is part of the table. Pound-for-pound weeks are not counted. There is no pound-for-pound belt and the table is a cross-division list, so adding a fighter’s pound-for-pound weeks to the same fighter’s weight-division weeks would count the same Tuesday twice. 1 ranked name is left out entirely — Bruno Silva is shared by two different fighters our source roster cannot tell apart, so any career total under it would be two people's added together. That page is withheld for the same reason. Ties. 3 of the rows below share the same 416 weeks on the published tables. Where two bouts share a value the older one is listed first — the first fight to reach a mark is the one that reached it. Where it comes from. Every number on this page is counted from the official UFC rankings tables themselves — the same tables the division pages let you slide back through, one week at a time, so any row here can be checked against the week it came from. A week is one published table: the UFC has missed weeks, and nothing here fills them in. Each name links that fighter’s own page; a ranked fighter we hold no page for is printed as plain text rather than dropped from the count. Slide back through the tables yourself on any division page.
