The UFC and Meta just unveiled the all-new Meta UFC Rankings — an AI-powered, Elo-based ranking system that replaces the traditional media voting panel. No more opinions, no more popularity contests — just data. But are the first set of results actually any good? 😬

In this video, I break down how the new system works, what it means for fighters, and the controversial rankings that have fans already debating — from Pereira moving UP after a KO loss to Yair Rodriguez getting penalized for inactivity.

Let me know your thoughts in the comments down below — do you think the Meta UFC Rankings are an improvement, or are you mad at the final results?

Combat sports has officially lost its mind 😳🔥

The MMA Girl is back to break down one of the craziest weeks of announcements we've seen all year.

With the highly anticipated UFC White House card only weeks away, the MMA world is already buzzing — but somehow, RAF has stolen the spotlight with a lineup that sounds almost too crazy to be real.

And yes...

We're talking about:

🥊 Khamzat Chimaev vs Dillon Danis

🥊 Arman Tsarukyan vs Tony Ferguson

🥊 Belal Muhammad vs Ben Askren

🥊 Plus appearances from Aaron Pico and more

🔥 In this episode we cover:

• The stacked RAF 10 card taking place June 13
• Why Khamzat vs Danis is one of the strangest matchups in recent memory
• Whether Arman vs Ferguson is brilliant matchmaking or complete chaos
• Ben Askren's return to combat sports against Belal Muhammad
• Why many fans see Askren vs Belal as a "lose-lose" situation for Belal
• A preview of UFC Vegas 118, headlined by Belal Muhammad vs Gabriel Bonfim

One thing is becoming very clear:

RAF is trying to become the most talked-about combat sports promotion outside the UFC.

And with names like Khamzat, Arman, Tony, Askren and Belal involved, they're doing a pretty good job of getting everyone's attention.

UFC 328 delivered one of the biggest shocks of the year 😳🏆

The MMA Girl is back to break down the full aftermath of an unforgettable night, where Sean Strickland once again stunned the MMA world by defeating Khamzat Chimaev to become the new UFC Middleweight Champion.

Just like his upset title win over Israel Adesanya, Strickland proved that writing him off is a dangerous mistake.

Meanwhile, in the co-main event, Joshua Van silenced the doubters with a huge TKO victory over Tatsuro Taira, cementing himself as the undisputed king of the flyweight division 👑

And with Chimaev suffering the first loss of his professional career, both the middleweight and flyweight divisions look completely different today.

🔥 In this video we cover:

• 💥 The best prelim highlights and standout moments
• 💰 Fight bonuses and top performers
• 😱 The biggest surprises from UFC 328
• 🥊 Full main card breakdown
• 🏆 What’s next for Joshua Van and the flyweight division
• 👑 Sean Strickland’s shocking title win over Chimaev
• 📉 Chimaev’s first professional loss (15-1)

Sean Strickland has done it again.

Khamzat Chimaev entered UFC 328 undefeated and holding the belt. He leaves with his first loss and a long road back to title contention.

And Joshua Van? He just turned a controversial championship reign into a statement performance.

👇 What do YOU think?

• Was Sean Strickland’s win the biggest upset of the year?
• Does Khamzat deserve an immediate rematch?
• Who should Joshua Van fight next?

UFC 326 is in the books… and it wasn’t what most fans expected.

In Episode 35 of The MMA Girl Podcast, we break down the full fallout from UFC 326, including Charles Oliveira’s shocking win in the main event and the growing debate about the future of the UFC’s BMF title.

The BMF belt — originally introduced in 2019 for the Jorge Masvidal vs Nate Diaz fight at UFC 244 — was designed as a one-off fan-service championship. But after several recent title fights involving the belt, fans are now questioning whether the concept still makes sense in today’s UFC landscape.

In this episode we cover:

🔥 The biggest moments and surprises from UFC 326

💰 Fight bonuses and standout performances

🥊 What’s next for the winners and losers from the card

🏆 Whether the BMF belt still has a place in the UFC

Was UFC 326 just an off night for the promotion… or did it expose deeper issues with the BMF title concept?
