 i agree whats with the brazilian hate?

 Brazilians are some of my favorite fighters in all the orgs. including inside and outside the UFC.  There's just only so many spots with all these fighters all over the world.  We have some great Brazilians listed though (and have had some great ones in the past including Texeira at number 6 before).

Are you kidding? What brazilian fighters are missing from the top 10?

 Ricardo Arona 8)

Agreed.  Arona needs to get his ass back into MMA.

wekka wrote:Lol at the complaint of lack of Brazilians, when the top three of bantamweight are BRAZILIANS.

Yup, very true.

Why do you think he deserves to be ranked?

KSW champion. Avenged one of his two losses. Knocked out Njokuani in WEC who is a superb stand up fighter. All 10 finishes in his 10 wins. He's a top level fighter and I believe he could beat almost any of the lightweights on the current top 10 list.

Thanks for the time and effort put into these rankings CDF47 and wekka. Always appreciated.

He will probably break into the contenders soon.

There are good arguments to rank him but there are some solid LWs with him that are right on the cusp of getting ranked like Isao.  I think Isao should be a nod ahead of Jewtuszko.

#5 Jr. Flyweight, Rambaa Somdet returns tonight in his debut for PXC.

Good turn of events, since we might possibly get TWO fights out of him, this year.

 Nice. One of my favorite FLWs

Rambaa Somdet earned a quick first round submission victory yesterday and improves to 11-2. He's still slated to fight at the GRABAKA! Live 3 event in a few months.

 Nice.  Glad he got the "W"

Apparently, the UFC have finally added our number one ranked flyweight, Darrell Montague.

This past night, his profile has been added to their website roster. Best of luck to Montague in his future endeavors and congrats to Will Campuzano, who will now be the number one ranked Global flyweight.

 I thought they might pick him up.  Campuzano is a legit top FLW.

Great job bro!

Appreciate it!

But to be honest, it definitely could use a lot more work. Taking into consideration that so many fighters jump up in weight, its pretty difficult to keep track of what class they're currently in.

 Yeah, that could be difficult but looks really good.

Yup, I saw interview this morning and removed him. Gaethje has to fight to move up but he will be at number 12 with McKee gone.  Gonzales will be added to contenders with the win over him.

cd.....do you think huckaba should be in the contenders??? 4-0 is his last 4 his last loss was against top ranked grabowski by dec...10-1 is his last 11
