Personally I thought it was BS to begin with. Dude's claim to fame is a submission loss to the champ. Dude is a sub loss waiting to happen. Take a look across the way and Jacare looks like a straight awful matchup for Chael. Maia will always pose a problem for this guy. And now the PED's.

We have left guys in the top 10 who came up dirty, but rare is the ocurrance when we rank them #2 fresh off a dirty test. And most of those guys who have tested dirty, did not have the achillies heel that chael does.

Especially with the one year layoff. What do we do with this guy?

fuck no. We know he's been doing roids for at least his last couple of fights due to his backne. He fucked up his cycle this time and got caught. As far as im concerned his last couple of fights are not legit.

Remember how far Barnett fell after his failed test to Fedor? Sonnen will drop out of the top 5 and eventually out of the top 10 before he fights next fight.

That division is a tough pick after Anderson.

I never thought he was a legit #2 since I think many guys can take him. I just think he has the best tools in the division to beat Anderson.

I would love to say yes he falls, because I am against the roid thing, but I have never seen Silva get thrashed the way he did against Sonnen, even though he won. So I am sitting on the fence on this one.

Did you drop Barnett from the top 10 when he failed a 3rd test? be honest.

Depends how long he's suspended for. He can be beaten by some guys in that division but MW is pretty weak and he won 10 rounds in a row against Okami, Nate, and Anderson. He's the most worthy candidate

The Middleweight division is a crap shoot at the moment, one minute Maia is submitting Sonnen, then he gets KTFO by Nate. Meanwhile Hendo get's beat up by a former Welterweight.

Yes. You get busted taking steroids you don't deserve to be ranked top 10.
