    A lot better than last one. I have no idea what the **** Couture is doing there though. And Lesnar? Why? Well, if Couture is ranked nr 7 it does make sense. But he shouldn't be there. And beating Herring is not at all anything that proves he deserves to be in top 10.

    Sylvia on 8th? Redicilous. Arlovski on SECOND ****ing place without beating a single top fighter? This is even more bull**** than what's coming out of Dana Whites mouth on regular basis.


    But oh well, hard to make it "correct" when there's different organizations that won't cooperate with eachother.

    Ok why is Overeem in the top 10? And Andei in 2nd place? On the basis of what exactly?

    Barnett at the 2nd spot is more like it...overall that's a good top 5 imo.

    That list is ****. Arlovski 2nd! Based on what? Losing 2 out of 3 to Tim Sylvia. I realize Arlovski has a lot of talent, looks good as of late, and is on a decent win streak.

    1. Fedor
    2. Frank Mir- beat Lesnar and Nogueira
    3. Brock Lesnar- beat Herring and Couture
    4. Randy Couture- Looked far from washed up against Lesnar, and his victories preceding the Lesnar fight still mean something.
    5. Andre Arlovski- I realize I just did a small rant, but he probably deserves this ranking. Arlovski defeated Werdum, and Werdum has defeated Gonzaga and Vera.
    6. Nogueira- He did defeat Herring and Sylvia before losing to Mir.
    7. Tim Sylvia- I know he's lost a couple recently, but I have the fighters that defeated him listed above him.
    8. Gabriel Gonzaga
    9. Barnett- Gonzaga defeated Cro Cop, that should count for something.
    10. Sergei Kharitonov

    The selection of fighters isn't THAT bad, it's the ordering that sucks.

    Im a huge couture fan but he how in the hell is he 4.... He didn't fight for about a year and in when coming back he lost to Lesnar (not saying it wasn't and extremely hard fight).

    1. Fedor
    2. Mir
    3. Barnett
    4. Andre
    5. Brock
    6. Nog
    7. Randy
    8. Slyvia (Although a rematch of sylvia randy would be interesting as I think tim would have a good chance).

    Seems accurate to me but I would put Randy ahead of Nog, I really don't see Nog beating any top HW's any more.

    Nah you can't put randy ahead he will need another fight against a good opponent to pass nog.
