    In my opinion frank mir should be #3 and at 205 Anderson Silva should be 3 cause rashad wouldn’t get out of the 1st rd with him.

    @mmasucka
    The dream and Strikeforce champs don’t get the votes that the UFC and WEC fighters do. Gilbert Melendez didn’t even make the top 5 and he’s the lightweight champ.

    I love that bibi makes it in the featherweight top 5 now!!

    I totaly disagree with a few of these. Thiago Silva should be in the top 5. And Fedor as number one come on, the guy cant be considered on top if he wont step up to the plate. I feel carwin can beat mir, and lesnar. these will change soon. I would love ST. Pierre to step up to Middle weight.

    how the hell does mousasi keep making top 5? what top 6 guy has he beat?
