We're talking about women's P4P. There's obviously only three women worth mentioning for the P4P argument.

Well honda aint it bro.

I don't think there's any qualms about her being ranked behind Cyborg.
Fujii's loss to an oversized opponent in Aguilar, doesn't help her case.

wekka wrote:Yeah, I could definitely work on it sometime this month.

As for splitting Jr and strawweight, it just isn't plausible at this point time, since the divisions simply don't have enough depth separately.

Nice.  Would be cool to have women's MMA, even one or two divs.  Yeah, I understand on strawweight.  Wish they would just do away with 120 lbs and go from 125 to 115 lbs altogether due to depth.

I don't know if I'd have Bibi @  but I don't know who I'd have there. The top guys there could be interchangeable a bit imo.

I may be biased because I don't particularly care for the guy, though.

 Thanks for the comments.  If Dantas would have beat Nam, he would make a good argument for number 1 at BW.

wekka wrote:I just can't see anyone else being ahead of Bibi at this point in time. Dantas had the best chance and I believe he was first at one time, but his loss to Nam set him back.

I almost wrote the same thing in my post above before reading this.

Yeah, I agree. Seems to me the only reason Pancrase established it was to just give.Sunabe a belt.

Top 10 flyweight, Jose Maria Tome signed with the UFC.  He'll be fighting at UFC 163.

Just saw him fight at Smash Fights last week. He looked pretty impressive and has a solid record. A bigger org. should pick him up to really test him. Would be cool to see him in Bellator or ONE FC against some of their FWs.

Glad Tome was signed honestly. He deserves a higher level of competition now.

#FREESERGEIFROMTHERANKINGSALLTHEWAYNEXTMONTH

Seriously there's no need to trickle him down like that, just take him off

1. Alexander Volkov (Bellator Champion)
2. Konstantin Gluhov (M-1 Global)
3. Kenny Garner (M-1 Global Champion)
4. Magomed Malikov (M-1 Global)
5. Damian Grabowski (M-1 Global)
6. Alexey Oleinik (Oplot)
7. Ryan Martinez (Bellator)
8. Jeff Monson (M-1 Global)
9. Andrei Arlovski (WSOF)
10. Thiago Santos (Bellator)

Yeah, I don't see Sergei venturing outside of Kickboxing anytime soon.

 I know it's been 13 months since he fought and it was against weak competition but I think it's still a bit soon to just drop him off entirely.  Sergei is a great HW if he would just return to MMA.  Giving him a couple more months of trickling down the rankings will allow a bit more time to announce an MMA fight.  He will be near the bottom of the top 10 already next month and he was number 1 not that long ago.  His next fight is coming up for GLORY and hopefully the fight after that is an MMA fight (hopefully working with Bellator or NYE).

 I think a couple more months to see if he announces an MMA fight are deserved for the Russian striker.

 I am hoping maybe something working with Bellator now that GLORY is on Spike and they plan cross-over fights.  He would be the perfect fit for a GLORY/Bellator cross-over match.

Would be awesome if they could pull this off.

 Yes it would.  Bjorn had an interview months ago talking about cross-over, Bellator vs. GLORY fighters in MMA and in kickboxing if GLORY were to get a Spike deal.  Hope this turns out like they were discussing.

wekka, Junior Boya seems like a decent flyweight to watch out for in the future.  He is a 25 year old Brazilian fighter with a 5-2 record.  He just won the Jungle Fight flyweight title yesterday by TKO in the 2nd round.  Seems like a good flyweight prospect just to keep an eye out on.
