1. 1

   

   Jon Jones

   "Bones"

   27-1-0, 1 NC

   Pound-for-pound king,nobody else is close.
   

2. 2

   

   Chris Weidman

   "The All-American"

   16-7-0

   I'm gonna get some heat for this but the guy's undefeated and has beat Anderson Silva twice and proved himself against Lyoto Machida.
   

3. 3

   

   José Aldo

   "Junior"

   31-8-0

   Everyone's gonna tell me that he should be ranked higher than Weidman,but if he wins a match soon he'll be back at No.2.
   

4. 4

   

   Demetrious Johnson

   "Mighty Mouse"

   25-4-1

   Johnson can easily be ranked higher just in a division kind of empty outside of a few people.
   

5. 5

   

   Cain Velasquez

   14-3-0

   It doesn't look like anybody's going to beat Velasquez at his weight class putting him up at five.He doesn't seem like he's going to move up or down to much on my pound-for-pound list
   

6. 6

   

   Anthony Pettis

   "Showtime"

   25-14-0

   Pettis is one of the most exciting fighter to watch and if he can just keep dominating the lightweight division like he is,he can move up to number one.
   

7. 7

   

   Anderson Silva

   "The Spider"

   34-11-0, 1 NC

   Honestly,if Silva was active right now he could still be around the top,and if he beat Weidman he could still be the king.
   

8. 8

   

   T.J. Dillashaw

   17-5-0

   T.J. Dillashaw is in the same position Chris Weidman was at after beating Silva the first time.If Dillashaw can beat Renan Barao,he'll sky rocket up my pound-for-pound boards.
   

9. 9

   

   Renan Barão

   "The Baron"

   34-10-0, 1 NC

   Barao went down on the list after losing to T.J. Dillashaw,if he beats Dillashaw and gets the belt back he will go where he was before on the list.
   

10. 10

    

    Johny Hendricks

    "Big Rig"

    18-8-0

    Hendricks is really starting to show us why he's the champion.I used to think he was a guy who could grapple and do nothing else,but he's showing us he can hit somebody hard.
    

11+

11. 11

    

    Alexander Gustafsson

    "The Mauler"  |  18-8-0

    This guy seems like he's one of the few people who stands a chance against our number one fighter.If Gustafsson beats Jon Jones,he can rise to the top of the list
    

12. 12

    

    Benson Henderson

    "Smooth"  |  30-12-0

    Other than Anthony Pettis,I don't think anyone in the lightweight division can beat Benson Henderson.
    

13. 13

    

    Daniel Cormier

    "DC"  |  22-3-0, 1 NC

    Daniel Cormier is one of the few fighters who stands a good chance against Jon Jones.He's undefeated and is a star wrestler,he is extremely underrated.
    

14. 14

    

    Vitor Belfort

    "The Phenom"  |  26-14-0, 1 NC

    Belfort is a great fighter,but he just can't seem to get the title.But,he was facing a different champion,Anderson Silva.Chris Weidman has a very different style then Silva.If he gets the title that will do wonders for Belfort's ranking.
    

15. 15

    

    Junior dos Santos

    "Cigano"  |  21-10-0

    JDS is an amazing fighter
