Lina Lansberg moved up a spot to 11th in the Women’s Bantamweight division after winning her fight against Macy Chiasson at Fight Night 160.

Despite his loss to Glover Teixeira at Fight Night 158, Nikita Krylov moved up to No. 14 in the Light Heavyweight division.

Jaron Cannonier put on an impressive display at the recently concluded Fight Night 160 event in Copenhagen, Denmark against hometown fan-favourite Jack Hermansson.

Cannonier survived a first-round onslaught and managed score a brutal TKO win against Hermansson, who saw his four-fight win streak snapped as a result of the loss.

Lina Lansberg took on Macy Chiasson in the undercard of the same event and notched up a unanimous decision victory, which has brought he one step closer towards breaking into the top ten of the Women’s Bantamweight division.

UFC 243 is up next, which will take place on October 6th at the Marvel Stadium in Melbourne Australia and it will be headlined by a tantalizing fight between Robert Whittaker and Israel Adesanya for the undisputed Middleweight Championship.
