I could see people saying that Sherk should be ranked higher than Alvarez. Josh Thompson too. Alvarez hasn't lost at this weight and has picked off some top guys so he has to move down.

Anyways, they commented he cracked into the top 10 after being Hansen and I can't find those rankings.

I would still have Aoki top 5. I know he just got beat by Hellboy, but he is 12-1 in his last 13, (1-1 v. Hansen) and looked great in the tourney with wins over early favorite, JZ, and a resurgent Uno.

The argument can be made for Mr. Rainbow Pants, I suppose I'm probably biased not listing in the possibilities in my question to Vak as I'm not really a fan of his.

He is very talented...but I don't like him. I question his heart.

He's a whiz on the ground, and I respect the skill just not really a fan. Especially not of the stunt he pulled during the first JZ fight.

Wow, I got that from MMAweekly.

Seems like they are a little too bias towards the Dream guys, UFC has only 1 of the top 10 guys (although he is #1).

I think Edgar would beat Gomi and he would be ranked if he wasn't controlled by Maynard

Can't really complain about them having him at #3 given his performance in the Grand Prix. BJ, and Gomi are the only two who definitely should be higher.
