This Week’s Official Rankings — Early 2026

The latest United Toughness Alliance Power Rankings show the early season hierarchy continuing to evolve. While Hakuryu maintains control of the top position, several challengers are beginning to separate themselves from the pack as the race for 2026 gains momentum.

This week’s biggest story may not be the leader at the top, but the dramatic climb of one competitor who has forced his way into the upper tier.

#1 — Hakuryu — 28.00 pts

Hakuryu continues to hold the summit of the Power Rankings.

Now at 28.00 points, the Fighting Champion has extended his lead over the field through consistent performances and continued success in the ring. His steady climb over the past several weeks has allowed him to build a comfortable cushion at the top.

For now, Hakuryu remains the benchmark every competitor is chasing.

#2 — Chris Ross — 22.25 pts

Chris Ross remains the closest challenger.

Sitting at 22.25 points, Ross continues to stay within striking distance of the leader while maintaining a firm grip on the number two position. His consistency has kept him near the top throughout the early part of the year.

If anyone appears capable of threatening Hakuryu’s lead, Ross remains the most obvious candidate.

#3 — Troy Lindz — 16.00 pts

This week’s biggest mover is Troy Lindz.

Climbing to 16.00 points, Lindz has surged into third place and firmly into the upper tier of the rankings. His recent performances have turned what was once a mid-board presence into a legitimate contender.

Lindz is now part of the conversation.

#4 — Dahlia Cross — 13.75 pts

Dahlia Cross continues her steady rise.

With 13.75 points, Cross remains firmly entrenched among the top competitors of the early season. Her quiet consistency has allowed her to remain near the top while others fluctuate around her.

#5 (TIE) — Rosa Delgado — 13.25 pts
#5 (TIE) — Selena Vex — 13.25 pts

The rivalry between Rosa Delgado and Selena Vex continues to reflect itself in the rankings.

Both competitors now sit tied at 13.25 points, only fractions behind Dahlia Cross and well within reach of breaking into the Top Four. Their parallel rise has become one of the defining themes of the early 2026 rankings.

#7 — Susanita Ybanez — 12.00 pts

Susanita Ybanez continues to remain a consistent presence in the Top Ten.

At 12.00 points, she sits just behind the cluster above her and remains well positioned to move upward should the rankings tighten further.

#8 — Valentina Blaze — 11.00 pts

Valentina Blaze holds steady at 11.00 points.

While she has not surged upward this week, Blaze remains firmly inside the Top Ten and within striking distance of the competitors directly above her.

#9 (TIE) — Amy Harrison — 10.00 pts
#9 (TIE) — Gunnar Van Patton — 10.00 pts
#9 (TIE) — Marie Van Claudio — 10.00 pts

Three competitors round out the rankings in a three-way tie.

Amy Harrison continues to build momentum following her resurgence late last year.

Gunnar Van Patton remains within range of climbing higher, continuing to stay relevant in the early-season standings.

Marie Van Claudio once again proves that her experience keeps her firmly in the competitive conversation.
