Just rewwatched the Nate Diaz shellacking of Michael Johnson who had been dismantling people and was ranked #6 while they had Nate at #14.
Diaz looked much stronger in his punching and crisp boxing .
Johnson caught him with some leg kicks early on but Nate perservered and just outboxed him big time like he did Cerrone at one time.
So is Nate Diaz ranked higher in Top 10 and did he get a much deserved PREFORMANCE BONUS from that win?
The official UFC rankings on the website have him at #6 and MJ at #7.
...and Khabib is at #2 despite not fighting for two years??? WTF
I believe Nate is ranked 7th and they won fight of the night.
TFK_SickEye - ...and Khabib is at #2 despite not fighting for two years??? WTFThat likely has to do with him previously dominating the current champ.

That still doesn't justify it IMO, but I'm not too fond of rankings anyway so fuck it!
Oh good if Nate is ranked up there he should get some big fights matchups coming up .
Wonder who will be next for him?
