Rankings should be based on actual merit, not speculation.

merit??? nunes just got demolish by pitbull last month!!! if we never see the fights we have to speculate there is no other way!!!!

Because we all know Aoki has such brutal knockout power

Antonio McKee seems to think so.

It's mainly based on his overall career and he did handily win his first FW fight.

That's right....The M-1 GP winner earned his spot. Hope he's fighting the winner of Garner/Grabowski for the belt next.

Also, I think its obvious that Nunes has a better track record at 145

ok...its just my opinion, i dont do the rankings thats cd and your's to do...i think aoki at 5 is ok but i agree one fc has to bring him better oposition for him to keep that spot.....ive never mention something about aoki's power lol!!!!

Yeah, hopefully ONE FC gets him some solid FW's to be tested against. Wish he would have just stuck to LW and defended his title there. ONE has some good contenders at 155.

Aoki has no KO power, unless he's fighting Antonio McKee.

Damm! Campuzano walk away from a wsof deal and did this!

Sergio Pettis' UFC debut no longer is in jeopardy, as he now has a replacement opponent for next week's UFC 167. Pettis will meet Will Campuzano, who will return to the promotion for the short-notice bout after five fights outside the company.

^Yeah, just heard about that. Another top FLW to UFC.

Fri Nov 08, 2013 5:25 pm

It sucks but the fight is awesome.

Yeah, I feel the same way.

Still can't believe Sampo is.untouched, though.

Fri Nov 08, 2013 10:58 pm

Cd! Graham off the contenders please

Yeah, he'll probably be the next to go to UFC.

Yeah, he's gone after that performance. Kongo dominated him.

What's the update on the women's rankings?

Sat Nov 16, 2013 8:17 pm

^Not sure. Maybe they should be a separate thread.

Mon Nov 25, 2013 12:48 pm

I think women's rankings should go together with the male ranking one section. if we separate women's ranking from this thread section then it would be called woman instead of mma . The benefit of having 2 ranking will get fans into pay attention and get into ranking.

Yeah, I do understand that but someone else would have to completely manage those rankings. Just not enough time to maintain all men's and women's divisions.

Mon Nov 25, 2013 4:45 pm

Well we've got a volunteer but I think the problem with having all in one is.just.the massive wall of text. I think the rankings the way they are can be intimidating.

Mon Nov 25, 2013 5:47 pm

i agree

Mon Nov 25, 2013 7:39 pm

cd!!!! palhares joins wsof

Mon Nov 25, 2013 8:43 pm

Rick Glenn doesn't even make the list of other contenders... pretty deep division.

Gotta make the fight with Fitch!

Somehow...

"It was a second offense," Fitch said in an interview with Brian Hemminger at MMAOddsBreaker.com. "Holding onto a submission too long, especially with a joint lock like that. You're talking about ending someone's career potentially. I think it was the right move [to release him]. I personally wouldn't accept a fight with [Palhares] because of those. One time maybe, but not twice." - http://www.mmatorch.com/artman2/publish/Other_News_4/article_18813.shtml#.UpP-GcSUQnc
