Hell yeah. Man if Chad Griggs becomes a number one heavyweight contender (never mind champion) I'd be pulling for him so hard I'd have a heart attack.

the guy gets no respect. when  he beat overeem's brother and then had the news conference i don't think he got a single question. i hope he uses that for motivation to kick some more azz.

Just realized I've got 5 UFC then 5 Strikeforce guys. :P

Griggs is a beast, it'll be interesting to see how he reacts if anyone can take him to deep waters, he's buzzsawing through everyone so quick.

Brendan Schaub top 10, really? He's the worst prospect in the UFC imo.

I think Schaub has improved since his beating at the hands of Nelson. Still it's really odd that Mitrone has become one of the best prospects...It's like he matured overnight o_O

I see most people have dropped Fedor from the top 10 altogether.  I seriously thought about it and then left him at #10.  He's only lost to top competition still, even if one of them is a former middleweight.  I suppose he'll probably be fighting his next fight in M-1, likely against a nobody, and that's kind of a shame.

And not having Frank Mir in the top 10 IS kinda crazy.  I don't much like the guy, but for the life of me I can't name 10 heavyweights that could beat him.

I believe you have Mir too high. Both Carwin and Lesnar imo. should be ahead of him.

It is.  There are about 15 truly relevant heavyweights.  The rest are filler, but they're generally entertaining filler.

Problem with HW is that they all pretty much have KO power and can spoil fights/rankings so easily that pretenders come off as contenders

@xbassistdoodx - That's a unique top 5.  I assume you don't rank on recent achievements?
