A UFC HOF ranking that you can update regularly based on who has been inducted and who has moved up into retirement age.  This ranking is for fighters you believe are worthy of consideration to be inducted into the UFC HOF.  This list will change often, so it is a ranking we can update regularly based on our own opinions of who is most deserving.  Here is my list:

@elementdefeat, this is the UFC HOF not MMA HOF ... though I love them both neither are deserving of a UFC HOF spot.

I'd say Jon Jones and Jose Aldo have clinched their spots already. Forrest Griffin doesn't have the best resume but he'll get in. Frank Shamrock will never get in because of politics. I probably missed a good few who I think have clinched their spots.

I think only these three have secured spots at this point. Jones is about to get there, though.

I agree w/ you both up there ^^

I made my list according to fighters who are damn near retirement or have already retired... but your fighters on your lists will certainly be on mine one day.

I think Jones is pretty much a lock already and Aldo is only a few title defenses away.

People are thinking about Frank.  Just, realistically its not gonna happen because of the bad blood there.  He belongs there though.

I just updated mine... They let Forrest and Bonnar in, so I removed them.  I have Anderson and GSP at 9 and 10 only b/c I don't think they'll retire within the next year or so.

I don't really have a lot of people...I could add a lot of them in.  I do remember about 2 months ago Toto Ortiz was removed (not from the HoF) from the UFC list of hall of famers web page.
