In other news, Gregor Gillespie has eclipsed the 18-month inactivity threshold for these rankings, and thus exits his No. 10 spot at lightweight. Taking his spot is top bubble list occupant Mateusz Gamrot, who came up short in a memorable scrap with Beneil Dariush last month at UFC 280, but is nonetheless 4-1 in his last five fights. Entering the rankings at No. 15 is Professional Fighters League finalist Olivier Aubin-Mercier, who is on a five-fight win streak since departing the UFC, with a chance to make it six straight—and pick up a $1 million check—at the end of this month.
