USA TODAY Sports/MMA Junkie rankings, April 13: Big wins equal big moves all around

With UFC, Bellator and ONE Championship all in action this past week, there was some major moves made throughout the latest USA TODAY Sports/MMA Junkie rankings.

Starting with ONE on TNT I last Wednesday, Adriano Moraes retained his flyweight title with a second-round knockout of Demetrious Johnson. With that monumental victory, Moraes goes from being unranked to No. 8 in this week’s flyweight rankings, while Johnson drops from the top spot for the first time in a long time.

At Bellator 256 last Friday, Ryan Bader (light heavyweight), Cat Zingano (women’s featherweight) and Liz Carmouche (women’s flyweight) all made moves this week after scoring wins in their respective divisions last Friday.

To close things out at UFC on ABC 2 last Saturday, Marvin Vettori pushed his winning streak to five by defeating Kevin Holland at middleweight, while Mackenzie Dern made a statement about her strawweight contendership with a first-round submission of Nina Nunes.

Check out the dropdowns above to find out all the moves in this week’s rankings.
