I really like Frankie, especially coming off this win. He just wont go down! Any normal human would be in a coma after both the first rounds he had against Maynard II and III, but Frankie carries on. Idk about him being #2 though.. You could argue a champion shouldnt be in those situations or you could argue it takes a real champion to get out of it. I got him ranked about 4/5th. Silva, Gsp, Jones then between him and Aldo

I think Edgar has a brutal division to fend off in the year ahead, if he holds on to his belt I can def see the case for a #2 argument. Good point about Jones Destroying his opponents also, you have to def factor that in.

I don't know, the way Edgar seems to bounce back, seems pretty invincible. I hate to sound like a band wagoner but he's made a fan out of me.

I've never been a huge fan of Edgar but after surviving those beating's from Gray in the last 2 fights I'm starting to be impressed with this kids heart. I wouldn't rank him above GSP, Silva or Jones anytime soon but he is tough

I agree I think Jones has been tested with some tough competition

If Edgar beats Melendez I think he might overtake GSP though.

I think 1&2 should be between Anderson and GSP. 3-6 is a combination of Edgar, Jones, Aldo, Velasquez

@Itfigures... the fact he hasn't been put in a troubling situation against guys like Rampage and Shogun even bolster his arguments for a better ranking imo. I think we are all pretty close to agreement though really.. we all pretty much agree Frankie is not quite #2 yet, but he is definately deserving of a top 5 spot... top7 atleast.
@norbar... I disagree, to say fighters who weight less are harder to finish is kind of weird to me.
