About These Rankings
The Forca Method BJJ Top 100 is an editorial ranking updated weekly. We weight competitive results across ADCC, IBJJF World Championships, IBJJF Pan and European Championships, and major submission-only events. For athletes who compete in MMA at a high level (UFC, Bellator, ONE Championship), we factor in their grappling pedigree and how they perform at the highest levels. Gi and no-gi lists are scored independently — an athlete's gi credentials do not carry into the no-gi rankings and vice versa.
These rankings represent the editorial opinion of Forca Method and are not affiliated with or endorsed by ADCC, IBJJF, or any governing body. Active competitors are indicated with a green dot.
