Scottish Rankings

I have started to compile my own rankings now, as there were a number of fighters not ranked by UKMF. At the moment, both B and C class fighters are ranked together but in the future I will be ranking these separately.

For now, e-mail me if you disagree with the rankings and tell me why (“you have X at #2 but he beat #1 last month”) and I'll keep it in mind.

Eventually, the “Scottish Muay Thai” rankings qualifications will be:

While primarily for Scottish born fighters, those fighters who compete predominantly in Scotland may also be considered.

Fighters are not to be inactive for any period longer than 6 months or they will be dropped from the rankings unless a fight is schedule within a month from the date they become ineligible.

Fights outside Scotland will of course be included and the rankings will reflect the level of international opponents the Scottish fighter is facing. A loss to a top European or Thai fighter will not weigh the same as a loss to domestic opposition, unless both domestic fighters have a similar international stature, for example.
