fedor still number 1? top 10 still but not number 1. no way

[EmpireWF]

Rob, you cannot have Fedor #1 right now.

If it was a close decision, sure. Fucker was being choked and tapped out. He lost.

2. GSP
3. Shogun Rua
4. Fedor Emelianenko

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Fedor was so far ahead as the #1 P4P before that loss, he lost and is still the #1 P4P fighter. Although, the gap has closed considerably, and you could count he, GSP, and Silva as the 1a, 1b, and 1c.

I try not to live in a "what have you done for me lately" bubble with my P4P Top 10...I like to look at the body of work.

[JeremyHight]

I live off the what have you done for me lately principle mostly, but here is my top 5.

1. GSP - Dominant in nearly every one of his last fights. I don't think Kos will give him much of a challenge.

2. Anderson Silva - Even if his last fight was a joke, he still won and has looked almost untouchable. I see him beating Sonnen easily.

3. Aldo - Looked absolutely dominant against Faber and should be a champion for a long time in WEC.

4. Fedor - He lost, but he is still amazingly talented and given the chance, would probably avenge the loss.

5. Shogun - Avenged his loss with a dominant win and will move up once he starts defending his belt. Rashad could give him a very interesting match.

[CrimsonGhost56]

^ that would be my list too (though i would flip flop silva and gsp). its too bad shogun is gonna be out for the next 8 months.

[Kuzzy Powers]

1. GSP
2. Anderson
3. Fedor
4. Jose Aldo
5. Shogun
6. BJ Penn
7. Lyoto Machida
8. Rashad Evans
9. Jake Shields
10. Nick Diaz

Bubble: Melendez, Brock, Edgar, JDS (after he smashes Nelson).

[Irish]

Machida twice?

Dude is just damn good, but I fixed it.

And Kongo needs a win, then I am sure he will jump up my rankings. He is too jacked to stay down for long.

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Silva has tapped a few times and I seem to recall GSP tapping to Matt Hughes...meanwhile, prior to the Werdum fight, Fedor never lost...he was so far out in front of everybody else and had an impeccable resume, the loss simply brings him down to earth with Silva and GSP right now. Silva and GSP already had the blemishes on their record...I'm not going smite Fedor and shuffle him down the list because he simply came back down to earth.

My set is NOT a Power Rankings system...I don't like judging fighters simply on their most recent activity...that is apart of it, but its not a complete picture.

[Kuzzy Powers]

Fedor doesn't even belong in the top 5 after that loss.

Silva and GSP are interchangeable at 1 and 2. Then it is abit of a cluster. But Fedor isn't in the conversation for 3. He hasn't fought anyone good, and he still lost. He isn't even the best in his weight class. Wait...right now he's not even the best in his weight class in Strikeforce.

Let's just crown guys who lose and rate them the best. Please someone who actually watches these fights on PPV, do a top 10 list.
