The Official FloGrappling Male Gi Rankings

Featherweight Male Black Belt Ranking

AOJ running things at featherweight right now. Cole Abate rises all the way up to second after his title run at The Crown. There's an argument to have him at number one, but given that he took a few losses this year, I think this is the correct order. Granzotto also rises after another impactful win, this time over Ademir Barreto. He proved that his upset win at Worlds against Andrey was no fluke.
