Bisping should be next in line and Lombard is NO TOP 10. Who has he beat in the top 10? NOBODY. He is so overrated. Belfort is sitting pretty at #3, but Bisping passes Muñoz at #4. No Lombard? For good reason

Nate is no longer a MW, just saying. If he were, he would be a top 5, able to beat Munoz, Bisping, Stann, etc.

Sonnen & Belfort are glorified, the true talent in the division lies in Belcher, Rockhold and Jacare. I would put Vitor, Stann, Sonnen and Bisping as talented guys who'll get close but'll never get a title. Up and comers with potential in Munoz, Weidman, Costa and probably Palhares if he gets his **** right.

I dont even know what Boetsch is doing there.

Boetsch is in my list as well, since he actually beat a guy in the top ten in Okami, Rockhold on 2 is what I don't understand tbh...

Dont think I am going to change anything after that fight.

@die is not about the win but how he performed doing it what concerns me. 

Rockhold is legit and one of the most underrated prospects out of the UFC IMO. He is strong, well rounded and only getting better. Granted, he hasn't faced top competition but I think he can bring a war to any of the UFC's top 5 MWs.

@blitz, well that's true. No doubt about it, Boetsch was getting his ass handed to him in the first 2 but he won. And I actually think Rockhold can be a star. He has some flashy stand up which is also legit and his ground game is also pretty solid, if he beats Kennedy decisively on saturday I'll add him to the top 10.

You guys will definitely have Hector on the list when he brutally KO's Boetsch.

@die that is a fair assessment.

@swick I am confident he will beat Boetsch decisively, i'm just not buying the hype yet. Once he does, depending on how he performs I may add him.

@Swick, yeah with Lombard it's actually the same. He didn't beat top competition but if he has a good debut, he sure will get on the list...
