UFC rankings updated after UFC Fight Night 66: Frankie Edgar debuts on pound-for-pound list

Frankie Edgar emerged victorious after a clean sweep on the judges scorecards at the UFC Fight Night 66 mixed martial arts (MMA) event last Saturday (May 16, 2015) in Manila, Philippines, after five rounds of action against Urijah Faber inside the SM Mall of Asia Arena (watch it).

Likewise for Gegard Mousasi, who outclassed Costas Philippou in their co-headlining affair (video).

As a result, "The Answer" is now ranked among the best pound-for-pound fighters on the planet, but it wasn't enough to shoot him past Chad Mendes in the featherweight line up. Likewise for "The Dreamcatcher," who stands fast at No.
