A Statistical Breakdown of the Top MMA Fight Camps

[TheMikeyHutch]

I took the time to crunch some numbers, and using the UFC Rankings, found out which fight camps produce the most, and best, Top 15 ranked fighters. Here are the results:

Nice work.

 

[Stephen J Rivers]

ATT might like to see that, based on how well TUF 21 has been going for them so far! Sure they'll love seeing the Blackzilians down in sixth below them.

So cool. The politics, culture and tactics of camps are fascinating, so thanks TheMikeyHutch!

So what happens when Rumble & Vitor win?

 

[TheMikeyHutch]

So what happens when Rumble & Vitor win?

That's a great question. What I will probably do is count the winner as the champion, and since Jon Jones was unable to defend his title, he loses his ranking, and is therefore ineligible to be ranked.

 

[TheMikeyHutch]

Interesting stuff. So who all at Jacksons is included in this list?

The list only includes the fighters that are ranked in the Top 15 in the UFC. Also, Travis Browne is no longer with Greg Jackson's fight team.

in deed...send this crew after ISIS..

I don't know how feasible it would be, but it would be interesting to see how many fighters camps actually got in the UFC, which were made exclusively by that camp. JacksonsMMA's, for example, their number would be massively inflated by guys who were already good and they gravitated to that gym because of the high level of sparring there.

Good article homie! Thank you for putting in the time for us!

Thanks Op for the work you put in.
I love when people do their own individual research.

Now, that being said I have a few questions.
ATT has fighters like Robbie Lawler who really has only been with ATT for like what, 2-3 fights now since leaving Miletech?

Are these #'s factoring in who was on the team at the time of the win, or are you using team members wins/losses(perhaps not taking into account they may have had wins in UFC with a different camp)?

I think you can see where I'm going in that if it's the latter not the former then it might not be accurate.
