Country is the citizenship shown on each fighter's ESPN profile, checked against their UFC.com place of birth (1 Oct 2026). Ranks are UFC.com Media Panel ranks within each division, so a #4 welterweight and a #4 lightweight sit side by side. Ranks 16–30 are unofficial NextSmash ranks, not UFC rankings.
