Fighters Rated in Two Divisions

24 fighters · separate entries per weight class · updated 2026-09-29

A fighter who competed at two weights has two entries in the 25-0 pool, because the same person is not the same fighter at 145 and 155. Size, cut and opposition all change, and the ratings change with them. That gives a drafter a real choice: which version to take when a spin lands on either division.

The list below shows, for each of the 24 fighters, the peak overall rating at each weight and the attribute that moved the most between the two entries. It is sorted by the better of the two entries. The gap between versions is usually small, and the attribute that shifts is often more useful to know than the overall number, because a build needs one specific category from each pick.
