Dos Santos Velasquez Lesnar Barnett Cormier Antonio Silva Overeem Werdum Carwin Mir Nogueira Dos Santos is the champ. Dos Santos is on a 9 fight win streak with big wins over future Fedor conqueror Werdum, Carwin, and Velasquez. Velsasquez' inactivity almost cost him the top spot without facing Dos Santos. It's still hard to put anyone above him. Lesnar is holding on, actually rising a little, due to circumstances. Lesnar got to his position by defeating Couture, Mir, and Carwin; and only a couple of people have done enough to get above him. I would have dropped him due to inactivity, but he has a significant fight coming up. Barnett is rising by staying active, and people that were previously above him losing. Cormier beat Big Foot. Big Foot had defeated Fedor. Silva beat Fedor. Overeem got the official decision over Werdum. Werdum beat Fedor. Carwin beat Mir.
1. JDS 2. Velasquez 3. Overeem 4. Barnett 5. Lesnar 6. Werdum 7. Cormier 8. Carwin 9. Kongo 10. Kharitonov
Both fair lists, that will change of course after the Lesnar-Overeem fight and Barnett could still challenge anybody.
Should be a great fight, of course it depends on where the fight takes place obviously, Reem has good TD defense so it will be interesting to see how it pans out.
it will be good to see brock back but i think reem has the striking, experience, and submission skills however brock has the ****ing best weapon in UFC wrestling, so it will be dependant on the takedown defense of the reem and whether brock is feeling right.
