The official UFC rankings have been updated in the wake of last weekend’s UFC Shenzhen card, and as expected, there have been some big changes.

Most notably, Weili Zhang has assumed the top spot in the strawweight division, having captured the title by defeating Jessica Andrade in less than a minute in the card’s main event.

Elsewhere in these new UFC rankings, interim middleweight champion Israel Adesanya has made an unexpected move into the pound-for-pound top-15. He’s now holds the No. 15 spot, while his next foe, undisputed middleweight champ Robert Whittaker, is at No. 11.

Here are the latest UFC rankings (via MMA Mania):
