The ESPN publication has presented the list of the best fighters of 2025.
In the women's category, the first place was taken by Valentina Shevchenko, the champion in the flyweight division.
In September 2024, Shevchenko regained her championship title, and in 2025, she successfully defended it twice, winning against Manon Fioro from France and Weili Zhang from China.
Among men, the best fighter was Merab Dvalishvili, the former UFC champion in the bantamweight division from Georgia.
This year, Dvalishvili defended his title three times, defeating opponents such as Umar Nurmagomedov from Russia, as well as Americans Sean O'Malley and Cory Sandhagen.
However, on December 6 at UFC 323 in Las Vegas, he lost his title, succumbing to a unanimous decision by the judges to Petr Yan from Russia.
