The Official Swedish MMA Rankings is the only ranking system focusing on Swedish MMA, with rankings for each pro division, as well as unique amateur’s pound-for-pound rankings.
In lightweight we find some of Sweden’s absolute most internationally recognized fighters.
At No. 1 we have UFC’s Guram Kutateladze, who’s known to always deliver violent and entertaining fights.
Holding the No. 2 and No. 3 spots are Sahil Siraj and Tobias Harila who both fight at the highest European level in OKTAGON MMA and Cage Warriors. Harila will return to Swedish soil on June 1 to headline the big FCR 20 card.
Prospect Baysangur Makaev bursting into the top 5 after his second-round TKO against Erik Wahrolen in February. Makaev will face Waltteri Hakkinen at FCR 20 on June 1.
