The Official Unofficial Bellator Rankings - January 5 2019

The next Bellator event isn't for a few more weeks but since the mma world is pretty quiet this weekend I so figured I might as well update these rankings. Since nothing's really happened the changes are minimal but there were a couple. The next Bellator event takes place on January 26 with Light Heavyweight champ Ryan Bader facing former Pride Heavyweight champ Fedor Emelianenko for the vacant Bellator Heavyweight Title.

Anyway, here are the Official Unofficial Bellator Rankings for January 5th 2019.
