According to the UFC's official website, Georgian fighter Merab Dvalishvili is in the top fifteen in the lightweight category.
After Petr Yan became a champion by defeating the Brazilian Jose Aldo and won the belt for the first time in his career, the Georgian athlete appeared in the top fifteen on the organization's website. The abbreviation "NR" is written next to his name. It means that the athlete did not have a numerical rating in the past.
