UFC 242 was not a single-fight card, but almost all of the promotion revolved around the fight for the unification of the lightweight title between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Dustin Poirier. When Khabib came out victorious, it was clear that Poirier's P4P and lightweight rankings would suffer. And they did it.
Other than that, fighters like Paul Felder and Joanne Calderwood have made good progress with victories in Abu Dhabi, and a few other divisions have also undergone changes.
Here is an overview of what happened this week.
P4P – Daniel Cormier and Max Holloway reversed the six and seven places. Kamaru Usman, Tony Ferguson and Robert Whittaker each occupy a place, from eight to ten. Conor McGregor is up two places to 11 in a way. Pear tree fell five places to 13. Israel Adesanya is up one place to 14. Tyron Woodley drops from one to 15.
Heavyweight – Curtis Blaydes is now number three after his victory at UFC 242. Junior dos Santos has fallen to four. Blagoy Ivanov and Shamil Abdurakhimov turned around nine to ten.

Welterweight – No change.
Lightweight – Tony Ferguson is the new number one competitor. Poirier is reduced to two. Felder is up three to seven places after his tight win over Edson Barboza. Barboza drops two to nine, while Anthony Pettis is down from one to ten. Islam Makhachev is up 14-14 after winning in UFC 242, leaving Dan Hooker at 15.
