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.

With many amateurs turning pro lately, there are some major changes in the rankings.

Still holding the No. 1 spot is IMMAF world champion Rafael Kveldstad, who’s one of the absolute best amateurs in the world. Kveldstad as not competed since November 2023 and is expected to make his professional debut in 2024.

Climbing his way to the top is AFN’s amateur bantamweight champion Liam Pitts, who’s still undefeated as a MMA fighter. The Allstars prospect defeated Nordic MMA champion Tufan Ahmadi in his first title defense in March. Pitts will most likely make his pro debut later this year.

New on the list are Bajad Damarkani, Alexander Håkansson and Ratko Tomic, who enters the rankings at No. 8, No. 9 and No. 10.
