and even though I can't stand him, I'll have to rank him after that. He clearly is worthy of a spot in the UFC LHW division. And since I seem to have upset some butthurt fans (because they KNOW what Thiago would do to him) a more sensible matchup would be Rumble/Feijao. I'd call that a fairly even match.

Kyle must have trained with Scott Smith. You don't just faceplant like that without some help from the pros.

Gaethje is a ******* stud.

Not saying he has defense.  But who needs it when you're a fearless destroyer?

Jesus, that was viscious.  Is Gaethje worthy of a spot in the top ten?

Wasn't a terrible stoppage but Patishnock had gotten Gaethje's respect with his power and chin. They could've let it go a little longer. Hate to see someone take unnecessary damage but don't want to take their chance at a comeback away from them either. A fine line.

Oh calm down there Oldman :) He deserves a spot in the top 30 but LW is the world's deepest division.

The sick bastard in me wanted to see Patishnock go flying in highlight reel fashion.

The compassionate human in me was happy to see it stopped.  I think he was done.  He showed his toughness but I don't think he had anything left at that point.

"LW is the world'd deepest division." True, but I'm drunk right now, so cut me some slack :)  

Edit:  Also, I tend to overrate the top guys in Bellator/WSOF/Strikeforce in relation to the UFC.  ****, I had Pat Curran at #3 in the FW ranks before the Straus fight.

Ok :)

I'm definitely not saying he's not that good. He may very well be one of the 10 best LWs but we've got to see him vs. some other top 20-30 LWs 1st.  I would probably pick him vs. most of the fighters ranked in the teens.
