1.) Dan Henderson USA
2.) Kazushi Sakuraba Japan
3.) Murilo Bustamante Brazil
4.) Anderson Silva Brazil
5.) Paulo Filho Brazil
6.) Jeremy Horn USA
7.) David Terrell USA
8.) Evan Tanner USA
9.) Matt Lindland USA
10.) Lee Murray England
The TOP 3 do not even fight at middleweight and have not for years. Theoretically Sakuraba could be 185, but he weighs in at 205 every time, meaning he weighs more than that on a normal day. This is the list of fighters that people wish were 185.
Dan henderson likes to fight at light heavyweight, he wants to fight arona and Vanderlei. Bustamante has been weighing 205 for his last couple of fights.
I think the top three should be removed and ranked amongst the 205 weight class so more Middlewights have a fair advantage to get ranked.
Come on now! How is sakuraba ranked higher in Middleweight than evan tanner or Mat lindland???? That makes no sense
