Nog tapped a top 10 HW in his last fight.
When was the last time Fedor even fought a top 10 HW?

if the matches b/w fedor and nog were close....i'd consider that a valid reason to put Nog ahead of fedor....but they weren't close

When considering the years 2006, 2007, and 2008 why would that matter?

Those were a while ago. In 05-06, did you put Penn ahead of Gomi in the LW rankings because he beat him in 03?

I just got 2 things about the rankings. 1. How is Shogun higher then Chuck and JArdine when he hasn't fought in a long time and he lost to Griffin?
2. Serra needs to be 2nd in the WW rankings imo. Fitch is overrated and Hughes didn't look to hot vs GSP. You got to give the Champ some respect.

I wouldn't say Fitch is overrated; his resume' speaks for itself.

You know what i think? I think the non-paying members who are complaining about the rankings need to fork out $5 and contribute after 83.  |

Nope, I am quite happy to bitch about the rankings others do and not do my part.....

That's irrelevant. Rankings are based upon what a fighter has done lately, and thus Nog in the last year has done much more in that he’s beaten two top 10 HW's, whereas Fedor fought a blown-up Lindland, and HMC. Those stats pale in comparison to Nog's, so therefore regardless if he beat him decisively twice, he hasn't done enough in the past 12 months (and beyond) to validate the top spot on the list.

Fitch looked absolutely horrible in his last fight. He has an impressive resume but his fighting doesn't impress me. I think Serra/GSP/Hughes/Kos ( I'm high on him) and maybe Karo could school him. |
