TORONTO - Despite her weekend loss to strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk, Canadian Valerie (Trouble) Letourneau has risen two places to No. 6 in the UFC's women's 115-pound rankings.
Letourneau, a Montreal native who trains out of Florida, went five rounds with the Polish champion in the co-main event of UFC 193 in Melbourne, Australia.
Newly crowned bantamweight champion Holly Holm rocketed up the UFC rankings following her upset win over (Rowdy) Ronda Rousey in the main event.
Holm, ranked seventh at 135 pounds going into UFC 193, now sits atop the bantamweight rankings. Rousey is listed as the No. 1 contender.
Holm's rapid rise pushed six other women down, with Victoria's Sarah Kaufman falling one place to No. 5. Holm, meanwhile, enters the UFC's pound-for-pound ranking for the first time at No. 13 while Rousey drops seven spots to No. 11.
Former light-heavyweight champion Jon (Bones) Jones reappears in the rankings after the lifting of his UFC suspension following a hit-and-run involvement. Jones, who was stripped of his 205-pound title, comes in at No. 1 in the light-heavyweight rankings and No. 5 in the pound-for-pound ranks.
