I don't see Story as top10 right now.  I guess that is the issue.

@Kalibo I agree...Was updating my rankings today after getting back from Jamaica yesterday and completely over-looked Story at 8!

You just posted that comment to throw the fact that you were in Jamaica while I was at work in my face!

I think that Condit deserve to be ranked over DIAZ. Then he is most tested, proven and has bigger wins.

Reason I got Penn so high and people may disagree, but it because he KO hughs who was in top 10 at the time. He destroy diego (though it was at lightweight) who welter weight top 10 and he went to a decision with Jon Fitch the number 2 welter weight.

I agree. I understand , that title shot means more to people in rankings. For me it does not mean anything. I look at record and level of opponents.  And Carlos has foughten simply the better guys, with the better wins and i many cases more impressively.

If u look at Diaz last 5 opponents and u look at Carlos, who fought the better guys? Think answer rather easy to see. There quite a large difference in level of opponents they fight.

Then take it a step further, who opponents were more well rounded?

At this point, I really think Condit has the best chance to beat GSP.

I agree with Condit having the best chance...DHK took him down and Condit hit a perfect sweep to get back to the feet...It showed me that Condit isn't done when an elite grappler takes him down and he can get back to standing
