Penn doesn't get in at 170 with that 1 fight, and would be 2nd at lightweight if it were announced that he would be coming back to that division.

Florian would be 4th if he were still a lightweight, and Aoki would not make the top 5.

Penn should be above Alves at WW for sure.
1. He is a former WW Champ
2. He starched Hughes even faster than Alves did
3. He did MUCH better against Fitch than Alves did.
