Rankings were generated by a voting panel made up of media members. The media members were asked to vote for who they feel are the top fighters in the UFC by weight-class and pound-for-pound. A fighter is only eligible to be voted on if they are in active status in the UFC and a fighter can only appear in one weight division at a time. The champion and interim champion are considered to be in the top positions of their respective divisions and therefore are not eligible for voting by weight-class. However, the champions can be voted on for the pound-for-pound rankings.

How the hell does the real Bantamweight Champion fall below a guy whose holding a marketing prop while he heals from the only thing that can actually provide him a challenge?
Are they trolling? Everyone knows a decision loss is in the near future for that buck toothed hack job.

...Boy- Johny just skyrocketed to #1. Glad for him but he's got to face killer Condit. This should be a wicked fight. Hendricks' best gameplan is to use his outstanding wrestling and put Condit on his back just like GSP did. Yes, Johny has sick power but Condit is the whole package on the feet along with outstanding footwork. Look- Carlos is a lot taller and no matter how thick Johny's beard is, a Condit flying knee will put him to sleep. I say close decision for Hendricks if he gets takedowns. I would be surprised if he caught Condit and put him to sleep. Condit is a beast and he won't quit...
