They arent in my top 10 bro, I agree with you. But if someone thinks that Lauzon is top 10 material, who are we to tell him hes wrong?? He is a young upcoming fighter who could be on everyones top 10 in the future.
Honestly I just dont like how guys like Huerta, Edgar, Griffin, and Guida get no love in the rankings. There is still that mystique that the guys over in Japan are better than UFC guys and I dont get it.

Its cool man, I didn't take it to heart or anything. 
All I'm trying to do is get people to not joke around with these Rankings OR make it a PRIDE vs. UFC deal. Its supposed to be about who's the best at whatever weight class and its easy to see when people put a lot into it and when people don't, IMO.

I think alot of it is they havent seen all of the fighters. So they are voting for who they have seen and know. I dont think anyone is trying to be retarded and ruin our rankings. Maybe Im wrong though, ill have to look at the dudes rankings to really tell.

I was reading into the deabate about the rankings, esecially when it came to LW, and thought some may be interested in what a computer thought.

2-Gesias Calvancanti
3-BJ Penn
4-Mitsuhiro Ishida
5-Shinya Aoki
6-Sean Sherk
7-Roger Huerta
8-Gilbert Melendez
9-Tatsuya Kawajiri
10-Kenny Florian
11-Frank Edgar
12-Tyson Griffin
13-Marcus Aurelio
14-Hermes Franca
15-Vitor Riberio
OTHER NOTEABLES:
17-Joe Stevenson
18-Joachim Hansen
21-Clay Guida
29-Joe Lauzon
33-KJ Noons
44-Nate Diaz
49-Nick Diaz
57-Rob Emerson

Huerta, Aurelio, and Franca are a bit high, but these Rankings look pretty legit.

The computer rankings don't mean much unless we know the criteria used by the computer. The list looks semi reasonable but we need to know the "why".
