Rank the UFC titles with the most prestige to least.

1. Light Heavyweight
2. Welterweight
3. Middleweight
4. Lightweight
5. Heavyweight

Looks good to me.

HW, LHW, MW, WW, & LW are all tied for first






....and last

Like Farmer said, they are all equal. What makes it so is the depth of the UFC stable of fighters. You can say what you want, but the UFC is 2nd to no other organization past or present.

LHW
HW
MW
WW
LW

LHW
LW
MW
WW
HW

LHW has to be 1st because it has the most depth and the MW champ is even competing in it because he has no challenge at MW. HW has to be last because the best HW fighter in the world is not competing in the UFC.

LW can't be higher than the WW when the WW champ destroyed the LW champ.

Dude he is the alleged best. He hasn't fought a real challenge since Mirko and that was a while ago.

Prestige has to do with the division in general, not who beat who. WW is pretty lackluskter when Fitch is the #2 guy.

WW is probably the most stacked division over the years next to LHW.

GSP - one of the greatest all time
Matt Hughes - one of the greatest all time
BJ Penn - another great
Jon Fitch - had a 15 fight win streak and is 23-3 (10-1 UFC)
Thiago Alvez - 16-6 (9-3 UFC) with a win over Hughes
Mike Swick - 14-2 (9-1 UFC)

The you guys like Daley, Larson, Kos, Thiago, Hardy, Davis, Serra, Karo, Condit, Kapmann, Haz and the list goes on and on of quality fighters.

Plus basically everyone who is anyone at WW is in the UFC unlike HW & LW.

Totally agree.

He is the best.

LW, WW, MW, LHW- same....all held by the best guys in their class.

HW.....no title that you can get a shot at upon beating Heath Herring or Gabe carries any prestige in my book. Any belt that Shane Carwin is fighting for does not have any prestige in my book. Brock is cool, but title shot after 2-1?...nigga please.

Yes, because winning the WAMMA HW Belt over a dumpy Tim Sylvia just screams Winner.

I was thinking more about the deepness at that weight within UFC and of other guys at that weight who could one day be in the UFC. There seems like a long ladder to climb for most to even get that shot unless you won a TUF or something.

Who cares about the WAMMA belt

Fedor earned his title shot, beat the best HW in the world to claim the title and then proved it wasn't a fluke with his defenses. Brock has done none of those things.

All the belts suck if they aren't worn by the true champ.

I think the HW belt is in it's rightful place but definitely not the LHW belt.
