Iwo Baraniewski UFC ranking and fight status

Overview

Polish MMA fighter Iwo Baraniewski fell out of the UFC light heavyweight META rankings following updates after UFC Sacramento, losing his 15th position to Reinier de Ridder.

Baraniewski was scheduled to compete against Alonzo Menifield, currently ranked 13th, at UFC 331 in Los Angeles to attempt a return to the Top 15. The bout was moved to the second position on the event’s main card at the Crypto.com Arena following the cancellation of the Renato Moicano vs. Brian Ortega match.

At UFC 331, Alonzo Menifield secured a split-decision victory over Baraniewski, marking Baraniewski’s first professional loss. The victory was notable as Menifield sustained a broken left thumb during the first round, with the bone visibly protruding through the skin. After being cleared by cageside physicians to continue, Menifield fought through the third round to earn two of the three judges' scores (29-28, 29-28). Following the bout, Menifield was reportedly transported to a hospital for medical attention.
