Yes, we all know it was ruled a NC because he had THC in his system, but in the real world, Diaz beat the no.1 ranked LW in the world convincingly.
If someone wants to rank him in thier top 10, then although i don't agree (i didnt rank Diaz), it's not out of the question and should be included in the table. If as you say he doesn't belong in the top 10, then the overall results will reflect that and he won't appear because not enough people will agree with toddums. But toddums should still be able to vote for him without it being overruled.

No way was Gomi vs Diaz FOTY. I'd put 6-7 fights above that, easily.
You have to look at the fact that it was issued a NC, because Nick Diaz got stupid and tested positive. Many will say, "It's just pot, dude," but seriously, Diaz knew the rules, and it's his fault that he got busted. He shouldn't have smoked weed before the biggest fight of his career.
You just can't count a NC, because it's not a win or a loss, it's basically like that fight never even happened.
The only way Diaz would be ranked would be if you really, really, really liked him and wanted to include him. Beating Aina ain't going to cut it, you know?
