I was looking at Shitdog's p4p list, and saw that Frankie Edgar was now listed on the p4p list, one spot above Penn at #9. Also, I remember a while back and remember when Bowles beat Torres, he was temporarily on the list due to that win. To me, a p4p list is different from the rankings in that it takes into account the quality/dominance of wins, the quality of opponents, the diversity of opponents... Whereas a standard ranking list basically takes into account W/L records over quality opponents, i.e. mmamath. Therefore, a win over a top 10 p4p fighter will definitely hurt that fighters place on the list, but doesn't necessarily warrant a spot on the list for the newcomer.
So, in short, does a win over a legit top 10 p4p fighter warrant a spot on the list for that fighter? What if they barely beat them? What if the p4p fighter gets crushed? What do you guys think?
