I understand leaving out hendo but I didnt

And I think Soko is over rated. Hes had like less than 5 fights right?

Soko's 4-2 after his loss to Machida. I still have hope for him...he's VERY young, and hopefully he can come back from that performance.

Not gonna put to much thought into it, but:

1. Rampage
2. Henderson
3. Machida
4. Liddell
5. Forrest
6. Shogun
7. Jardine
8. Wand
9. Lil Nog
10. Arona

[koolaidx]

1 Rampage
2 Henderson
3 Liddell
4 Griffin
5 Jardine
6 Rua
7 Wandy
8 Machida
9 T. Silva
10 Ortiz
11 Evans
12 Soko
13 Nakamura
14 Alexander
15 Sakara
16 Heath
17 Hamill
18 Bonnar
19 Irvin
20 Lambert

This is my UFC only top 20. Sorry Arona and Lil Nog.

You make a really compelling case. I'm going to move Shogun ahead of Wandy on my list.

I know my selection of Machida at number two is speculative since he doesn't have too big of a list of big wins but I stand by it. It's the way in which he fights that does it for me. He's like a ghost, untouchable -- always is in control and never in trouble. His style is so very clean. I'm fully on the Machida war wagon until I see something that exposes a weakness in his game and a single loss may not be enough.

Lol, but at least now you have free reign to lambaste anyone else's list.

I pretty much agree with leelandk. Except for I put Evans at 10. Tough to do though. Can't wait until all lhw gets sorted out.

Good thread, the LHW division is deffinatly all messed, its nothing what it looked like one year ago. Excluding Hendo my top ten would look something like:

Rampage
Chuck
Forrest
Shogun
Jardine
Wandy
Machida
Tito
Evans
Thiago Silva

[AngryJohnny]

1) Rampage
2) Henderson
3) Machida
4) Chuck
5) Forrest
6) Jardine
7) Wandy
8) Shogun
9) Evans
10) T Silva

...man what a mess. I debated on swapping Thiago with Soko but couldn't quite bring myself to do it. Tito MAY still belong right on the edge of the top 10 as well, but I'm holding judgement until he fights again.
