a great year of mma ahead
yea i can see why belfort would be ranked higher he is on a tear and silva just lost . that said if they both had a rematch i think it would be a very hard fight for both fighters and silva would come out on top .i would also like to say i feel that the middleweight Div is stacked right now and i cant wait to see it unfold
"i would like to thank god for TRT ( vitor belfort )"

Some people rank Anderson Silva as number 1 because the number one in this list should be the best MW of the world, not the guy who legally killed the best MW of the world with a punch to the chin.
If you think Weidman is better than Silva go ahead and place him as number 1, but saying someone is the best MW in the world just because he beat Anderson Silva out is pretty dumb. A strong argument can be made for Chris Weidman at the top of this list: his improving striking, his gameplans, his ability to keep his opponents guessing, his jiu-jitsu... You can't rank fighters based on a single punch.
There is also the "bad matchup" factor: Shogun is a better fighter than Sonnen, but he will be beat by Sonnen this August. That doesn't mean Sonnen is better than Shogun, that just means than when facing Sonnen, Shogun loses.
