I'm to late? cool if so

Yeah the rankings are stickyed at the top

FARMER I SUBMITTED RANKINGS FOR EVERYTHING ELSE


ITS NOT MATHMATICALLY FAIR TO NOT INCLUDE MY BW RANKINGS, WHICH ARE LACKING IN VOTES ANYWAY


ILL ANNOTY THE SHIT OUT OF YOU

With Chael upsetting Nate whose was either at 2 or 3 for everyone, Maia beating a sloid top 15 Miller , Thiago finishing Swick and Serra KOing Trigg

I'd have to look at them again, but Serra and Thiago are both top ten type material and Chael moves into the top five spot or close to it.

Well this was MY rankings before the fight

Quote :

1. Georges St. Pierre
2. Jon Fitch
3. Josh Koscheck
4. Thiago Alves
5. Nick Diaz
6. Dan Hardy
7. Paul Daley
8. Mike Swick
9. Carlos Condit
10. Jay Heiron

so swick would drop out of top 10 and Paulo would be at # 10.

MW:
1. Anderson
2. Hendo
3. Sonnen
4. Nate
5. Vitor
6. Maia
7. Shields
8. Khalidov
9. Okami
10. Santiago

I at least know Paulo is at 6 for me now

GSP
Fitch
Thiago
Kos
Diaz
Paulo T
Hardy
Daley

9-10 goes to 2 of these guys, Serra, Hughes, Condit, Kampmann

WW:
1. GSP
2. Fitch
3. Alves
4. Kos
5. Hardy
6. Daley
7. Diaz
8. Thiago
9. Kampmann
10. Condit

Kampmann is borderline hot garbage. He's not even top 15 for me anymore. Condit outside the top ten for now.

no Vitor LA?

Diaz is for sure btter than Hardy or Daley, and IMO Thiago is as well, he's got good tsandup that could catch either of them, a solid chin and way better jj skills.

How do people have Serra ahead of Hughes?

Serra just now beat Trigg. Hughe sbeta Trigg twice in his prime. Then you factor in Hughes beat Serra H2H with a illegal headbutt in the first round that rocked Hughes.

The ONLY argument you could make is that Matt hasn't been active.

I don't have either one of them! Who did Serra beat? The guy who was the guy before the guy, before the guy? Before that he lost to one of them "guys" and he's 35.

3 key reasons

1. Im drunk

2. Its my ratings dont expect some historical rating system

3. I think Serra mighta won vs Hughes, I change my mind everytime I watch it, I think he has more assets to be competetive vs the top than Hughes

1. Anderson Silva
2. Dan Henderson
3. Chael Sonnen
4. Vitor Belfort

Old rankings -

Quote :

1. GSP - unbeatable, but then again, Serra may have been on paper his best matchup in his UFC career.
2. BJ Penn - Look, Penn will be back here someday, and no one besides Rush is beating this man ever again in his career.
3. Thiago Alves - Liddell like takedown defense and hammers for knees feet and hands.
4. Jon Fitch - a humanoid backpack of beatdown.
5. Nick Diaz - Look for him to submit Zaromskis or knock him the fuck out.
6. Josh Koscheck - Ever improving, he is becoming the prototype for wrestler converts.
7. Dan Hardy - A white version of the below mentioned. Stupid ass haircut. Eventually both fighters will be exposed on the ground.
8. Paul Daley - The best technical striker in MMA right Joe?
9. Matt Hughes - It's a crime people strike him from their lists after losses to the two best fulltime WW's, one who was overweight, and a win over the last man besides GSP to hold the title, and the only other man besides himself to ever best the Canadian.
10. Jay Herion - It was a tough choice between him, Hornbuckle, and Zaromskis but with the sudden rise of Daley and Hardy in the UFC I feel it's best to go with someone with a more established well rounded skillset and resume.

new rankings -

1. GSP
2. Jon Fitch
3. Thiago Alves
4. Nick Diaz
5. Josh Koscheck
6. Dan Hardy
7. Paul Daley
8. Paulo Thiago

The above rankings I can solidly say - here is where it gets dicey. I have to chose between Hieron, Hughes, Condit and Serra.

9. Hughes
10. Serra

Quote :

10. Paulo Filho

psst, listen, no one tell Ninja that Filho isn't a middle weight anymore and has moved to LHW and had sucked dick at MW for the last three years, hasn't had a good MW performance against a top ten fighter since 06.

It's a secret.

(in conspiring whisper) no problem, I won't say a word.
