Maybe we could get good rankings here if we did one division at a time after a championship match or division heavy card.

Browne and nog deserve the 10 and 11 spot more than what you have listed. Maybe even hunt too.

Leaving Carwin out since he's not fought since June of last year and doesn't currently have a fight scheduled.

You listed Rothwell twice. You probably meant to put Ron Sparks there.

Supplement Shane Del Rosario into that second Rothwell slot.

If you haven't ranked him, you are hatin' on



4-0 in the UFC. Only loss is to Sergei in Pride.

agree man, Mike Russow has quietly become a clear cut top 20 fighter with wins over Todd Duffee and Jon Madsen. I think he is a live dog vs Werdum, a lot more live than people are giving him credit for.

his problem is he has fought once a year every year since 2009, he has got to change that.

This and he still hasn't really got any definitive win that puts him over any of the actual top 20 fighters in the division right now. JOE is kinda old and hasn't won a fight since returning from a 6 year break, Madsesn has been MIA for a while now since their fight, which was kinda eh, and Justin McCully, c'mon, filler. Survivng a beat down from Duffee 2 years ago is still his defining moment. He is in a range of 15 to 22 for me and not getting into my top 20 until he show me something more convincing.

Wolf, that av is way too big.

McCully is a good veteran who was 2-2 in the UFC after he lost to Russow. Madsen is boring but he had a good UFC record also. Russow has the goods. I think he'd beat Konrad.

Yeah you have an unfaltering bias against Konrad because he fell on the opposite side of an argument you were not able to avoid falling on your face into. Why do I get the sense Russow is your next Konrad?

His defining moment is surviving a beating and making it look like he punched a guy who was actually passing out from exhaustion. Not swelling up Maddsen's eye so the doctor could thankfully get us to the next fight, not lumbering away on the fence with McCully and Emino. He has all the right ingredients but is lacking the flavor.

Oh listen to you. Exploding with nerd rage over some random top 25 deathclutch blob disagreement. What argument is that? Konrad has never beaten a HW with good wrestling, and until he does, fuck his ass. I hate that fat bastard. His MMA wrestling is crap and it will be exposed sooner or later. I don't have any issue ranking him anywhere around 18-25 but Russow has the better resume. Duffee, Madsen, McCully are better than Graboski, Grove, Buentello and Prindle imo. But I really don't care if you disagree. Though I am not getting dragged into an argument over which non-factor, never-will-be-a-factor, HW deathclutch blob is better than another.

hmm, I'm exploding? Okay. And the whole, not getting dragged into discussions you initiate, you should def do that.

No, I am fine with discussion, but when it turns into a yellow name defending his position on some random non-issue with a clenched jaw as if it fixes his nonexistent sex life, is when I begin to take pause. We've all witnessed the pathetic arguments over the last month here. They're embarrassing honestly. I mean, we're ferociously arguing like shertards over subjective high level hardcore opinion about third string fighters like Cole Konrad and Mike Russow? This aint Lesnar v Fedor yo.

If you wanna discuss shit that's fine, but when it becomes some personal vendetta over me not thinking Konrad is very good, it's truly whatever. I don't like Russow enough to go to bat for him in some keyboard warrior faceoff.
