McCrory, Sudo, and Salaverry are great picks.  Especially McCrory.  He's still so young.  What's he up to these days anyway?

@thebarncattm Tamdan McCrory Back on the War Wagon and feeling great. Can't wait to start a new chapter at 185. Awesome classes and awesome training today @cnymma

That was back in March of last year.  No fights yet.

Seriously, what is the deal with Ricardo Arona?

I also always wondered about Philip Miller, he fought in a few UFC's and was unbeaten, and then never fought again.

There's talk about Arona coming back in 2012 somewhere.  Phillip Miller was in the sport when there wasn't much money to be made.  He quit and became a cop.  He loves his job and has no desire to return to the cage.

Don;t know if he has officially stopped fighting yet but after his fight against Wanderlei i would LOVE to see Cung Le have another fight in the UFC.

Jeff Joslin's career was unfortunately short.  He does put out some cool YouTuvbe videos these days though.

Here's him breaking down Nick DIaz' arm bar on Cyborg.

Most retirements are justified, and they came either at the right time, or too late. These are 5 guys that I think still have something left in them, Genki, Arona, Lytle, Herring and McCrory can still accomplish something in this sport. I'd LOVE to see Genki or Arona fighting again.

I'm actually surprised to see Heath Herring ahead of Genki Sudo in the consensus ranking to be honest.  No offense to Heath.
