MMA Junkie rankings report: Sorting out a big women’s fight weekend

Last weekend was a big one in women’s MMA.

Friday night’s Bellator 224 saw featherweight champion Julia Budd (13-2 MMA, 7-0 BMMA) earned her 11th consecutive victory with a first-round stoppage of Olga Rubin (6-1 MMA, 4-1 BMMA). One night later, former UFC featherweight Germaine de Randamie (9-3 MMA, 6-1 UFC) finished Aspen Ladd (8-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC) in just 16 seconds in a bantamweight matchup.

What did those two key fights mean for our rankings? In our new weekly video feature, the MMA Junkie Rankings Report, John Morgan walks you through the implications from Bellator 224 and UFC on ESPN+ 13.

Check it out in the video above.
