Ubervamp, you seem like someone who's trying to make a list of fighters based on an imaginary list of who deserves title shots and who's champ, when that's clearly not the point of this thread.

The only one I see a problem with is Noguiera #2. He's about 5 or 6 in my rankings, but everything else looks ok. Mir would have to move up to #3 if he beats Lesnar in July I would imagine

I'm waiting until after Wanderlei vs Franklin (even though its at catchweight it may still affect the rankings of some).

I like your rankings with the exception of MW, which is probably the hardest division to rank. I think Okami is too low, he should at least be ahead of Lawler IMO. Marquardt might be a little low as well. I think Santiago is too high.

I also think Babalu is too high at LHW.

My criteria and system is a bit different with the largest weight being placed on the last two years. D0mer and me were in a pretty good back and forth debate about my rankings last week... I'd like to finish that debate [face_tongue]

That doesn't really make much sense though. If a fighter did relatively nothing one year but then had a breakout year where he defeated the top three ranked fighters in consecutive bouts, he deserves to be ranked at the top.

I know you all hate Brock but he should definitely be higher up on the HW list.

Lesnar is ranked #2. You must be confusing Brock Lesnar with Brock Larson.

Oh snap lol I guess scrolling through the last page of this thread and seeing some people have Brock at like 5 or higher just made me assume that he was low on the HW list.
