I think it's the fact that you have Faber and Grispi so low.

Alright kings I'll explain. Our perception of the new divisions is very different.


1. Dominick Cruz < No issue
2. Joseph Benavidez < No issue
3. Brian Bowles < so much activity in the division around him, and he quit on his stool while I have another guy who deserves this spot who fought through the same thing. I moved him down a few spots, but not a major problem.
4. Miguel Torres < too high. Faber should clearly be ranked ahead considering JoeJitsu ran through him, their recent wins and losses, and their overall games and careers. Everything is in Faber's advantage.
5. Scott Jorgenson < I got him higher cause he is the number one contender but this aint that big of a deal.
6. Urijah Faber < way too low. His resume speaks for itself. He should have been in this weight class all along.
7. Matsakatsu Ueda < Maybe you do a better job watching everyone I should than I do, but have you even seen him fight, and who is he fighting anyway? I guess I am falling into a Zuffa trap here. I didn't rank him but I kind of have an *besides his name as the obligatory Japanese guy. I just don't follow Shooto enough to really judge how those guys rack up against WEC fighters, but I really think the talent disparity is growing in favor of the WEC.
8. Rani Yahya < lost two in a row in a super active division and has moved up to FW and has a FW bout scheduled. Shouldn't be ranked.
9. Takeya Mizugaki < don't mind him being ranked though he wasn't on my rankings.
10. Waggney Fabiano < shouldn't be ranked in the top ten after his last loss. BJJ blackbelt who is too easy to sub, and he is slow and not athletic or explosive as younger guys. Needs to move back up FW. Wrong weight class for him. Wrong side of 34 and his chances for serious improvement are small. He also gets a boring fighter penalty.

Eddie Wineland is not on the list and that is a crime. I kicked out Fabiano and Mizugaki from my rankings with their last losses, but kept Damacio Page, added Demetrious Johnson for his last two wins with one being over Page, though I can see where that could be seen as premature. Mizugaki and Banuelos were kind of a toss up for me but Banuelos is coming off a win and his only loss in his last five fights is Jorgensen so I made a decision.

1. Dominick Cruz
2. Urijah Faber
3. Scott Jorgensen
4. Joseph Benavidez
5. Brian Bowles
6. Eddie Wineland
7. Miguel Torres
8. Demetrious Johnson
9. Damacio Page
10. Antonio Banuelos

Those are my rankings, yours are retarded and because we disagree, I'm deleting mine and am gonna ask ninja to delete my account because of it too unless I can ignore you. I also just got off the phone with your boss and I got you fired. You wanted my attention, you got it faggot.

Some surprises there for sure. Can't believe Lombard is off while Santiago is on, just in terms of the profiles of the two.

I forgot all about fuckin Wineland. lol. I did the same thing last time or the time before with Jon Jones but i changed it on time. I would have had Wineland about 7-8 with his recent run. Honest mistake.

As for Faber. I would have ranked him higher but the fact he had never fought 135 and i just stuck him where i had Mizugaki all this time. I don't disagree with that. Maybe i should have ranked him top 5, but i kind of gave Torres the senority card within the division and maybe Jorgenson because he's been on a nice streak and he's about to fight for the belt.

I think Urijah would beat the shit out of all of them.

I'll admit Bantamweight is my weakest division and it's always the last division i rank and i've been kind of half watching the last few WEC cards outside of the main event. Sometimes certain guys slip my mind, so the last 4 slots are kind of a crap shoot with me.

FW division, i'm confident with it outside of maybe some shuffeling with some names in the top 6. all the right guys are there though. A little rushed on #10.

As for Grispi, Freak. All the guys i listed infront of him have better wins. Joe Warren has fought and defeated better competition than Josh Grispi. Now, Warren has question marks and it's not an easy call on that one in particular but i simply like Kid, Soto, Friere, Bebee(his first fight) and Karen more than LC Davis and Hominick.

You can make an arguement with Warren and Grispi with me and i'll say it comes down to opinion. I'd take those guys that Warren beat, and Warren himself over LC Davis and Mark Hominick with the exception of Karen and Beebe

Even if i put Grispi ahead of Warren, there is just no way i put him highter than that. There is no way i put him ahead of any of the others, even Hioki. All those guys have been fighting and beating better competiton than Grispi for a long time excpet Sandro who was can crushing for a long time before SRC who i might of hot shot on a who would beat who basis, but i think Kanehara is a better win than Davis. I mainly ranked Sandro high because i think he wrecks people right now but i just don't want to rank Grispi high just because Zuffa FW division has been noticeably getting weak while most of the fighters people want to see Aldo fight are in other division or outside of Zuffa, after the destruction of Faber and MTB. You can lobby with me to move Sandro a bit lower within the top 5 because i might of given Bibiano, Manny, Omigawa, and MTB a raw deal, i'm open to that like i'm open to moving Faber in the top 2 and obviously putting Wineland in my rankings which was a mistake...Grispi's fine where he's at in my FW rankings

Where are the FW and BW divisions?
