FloGrappling's Official No-Gi Rankings

Men's 205+lbs No-Gi Rankings

After a wild weekend, the rankings are all shaken up. Kaynan went 7 for 8 in submissions and double golded ADCC and with the depth of that tournament he has to move up to second only behind Gordon (who's owned that series, historically). Pena wins +99kg and taps Luke, and they are your 3 and 4.

There are two massive upsets over the weekend that need to be considered; Pixley over Meregali and Kanard over Hugo. I don't want to overreact and drop these guys too much - both are still obviously elite grapplers. Considering their strong bodies of work, I put them as 6th and 7th.

There's a few names returning to the rankings, including Rafael Lovato Jr. (who returns after only being ranked at 205lbs coming into the weekend) and New Wave medalist Dan Manasoiu. There's also two new names in Michael Pixley - who beat Meregali but doesn't have the overall resume to move past him yet in a rankings sense - and Josh Saunders who placed fourth at +99kg.

Rankings do not reflect ADCC Open & 1-star IBJJF Open competition.
