Meta's quality has gone to shit on virtually every app (Facebook, IG, maybe not WhatsApp) so I look forward to seeing them serve up a real dog's breakfast for UFC fans.

Again, I’m sick to my stomach with what the tech oligarchs are doing. I think it’s funny Dana is doing all the fight announcements on Instagram. You gotta love all the quid pro quo. My God I want to vomit.🤮 I am curious, though, with the AI fighter rankings versus the current ranking system. From what I recall, the current fighter rankings are based off polled media outlets. there were some that were voting that had no idea about MMA. Who knows it might be better. 😂

Besides the obvious implications of supposedly removing humans from rankings, there are other considerations.

What recourse for a fighter have if they get downranked even after a win? What's the appellate process for that? How much are rankings used as leverage for future contracts?

What is the purpose of ranking for UFC given how many re-matches they do at this moment in time?
