Mine. I have Mayday at 11, think he really needs a tougher fight to prove his worth in the division.

I have no problem with having Bibiano in the top ten. He's very dangerous. Him and Imanari have to be close to breaking the top ten for me, more so for Fernandes.

Because the only people that Miguel has lost to in his past 3 losses have been against Top 10 guys, I'm putting him at #10. Bibano is at 10 1/2.

Are your rankings like that just to dumbfound people? Jorgensen got dominated by Cruz yet you have Jorgensen at #1, Bowles just got smoke by Faber yet you have Bowles at 6 and Faber nowhere to be found. Kid Yamamoto has been dominated in his last two fights, most recently against an unranked opponent yet he's still in your top 10. They have a section for favorite fighters that is separate from the actual rankings.

I understand approaching rankings as a what if? thing, but Kayak's rankings are just to confuse people. Its one thing to place someone above a fighter with a better record because you think they would beat them but it makes no sense placing someone so far over someone that just beat them last night

Do you have a way to explain your way of thinking or is it just because?

Still might put Michael McDonald at #10, but I still wanna see him get that big name win on his resume.  I hope they match him up with someone like Eddie Wineland, would be a great fight.

I think few people understand that water cures most of your problems. A hot bath is good medicine. I also think that its a crime, the size of tubs. they should be bigger nowadays since we are bigger nowadays, don't you think that makes  sense?Nevertheless it worked like a toaster toasting toast. I like my lists and think they are perfect because I pick people who are fighters. That is why my lists are the way they are.

@redkayak You really didn't say anything about your line of thinking. We all pick fighters, that's what MMA competitors are. There is no list that doesn't have fighters in it. The way it seems is your list isn't of the best or most accomplished fighters it's a list in order of how appealing you find their fighting style.

perhaps our definition of fighter is different. You ever seen The Hudsucker Proxy? my way of thinking is like that. "You know for the kids."
