BW -Takeya Mizugaki, 5-5 yet he was given some huge fights that in hindsight he likely shouldn't have gotten.

Who are Bispings loses in "big fights" Hendo, and Belfort, Sonnen who else
Mizugaki has been robbed in fights by the judges, doesn't amake him overrated.

[quote=AlphaDawg;1826730]HW: Mark Hunt.
MW: Weidman. Not because he's bad, he's actually very good. But people act as though he's a genuine threat to Silva.
LW: Edgar. People still say to this day that he's the uncrowned LW champ
FW: Edgar. Sites actually have him ranked as #2 when he's 0-1 in the division.

ALL OF THIS!!!! Except Hunt. I want to see him succeed.

HW: Shane Carwin
LHW: Phil Davis
MW: Hector Lombard
WW: Rory Macdonald - He is very, very good and has the potential to be great but so far people are making a big deal out of him when his biggest win was over an under sized Lightweight.
LW: Gray Maynard - Once again he is very good but a lot of people say he is the only one to have a crack at Bendo yet he has only fought once since a KO loss to Frankie Edgar
FW: Chad Mendes - Another guy I think is great I just dont understand how wins over Mckenzie and Meza make you #2 in the division
BW: Brad Pickett
FW: Joe Benavidez

Because he has been dominant and has beaten everyone he has faced in the UFC and the WEC pre merger with the exception of Aldo.

Bendo has not destroyed anyone lately. he man handled Diaz, but didn't destroy him. IMO he lost twice to Frankie. He's good, but a bit overrated in a sense.
Also Hioki isn't that overrated, just has had bad luck with the judging..
