I compiled a list of all the gyms and teams of the fighters i rank.
Then i counted how many fighters from each gym/team.
Then i ranked them and sorted them by country.
The following is what i came up with.
It's one way of seeing who has the most top ranked fighters.

How do you define top ranked?
wow you did alot of work
is school out today?
top ranked as according to my rankings...do you need me to repeat it again for you?
So.... you made a a completly subjective list of fighters based soley on your opinion and decided to share it with us.
Thank you. That was really sweet of you.
*hands braddahshano808 a cookie for his effort*
"top ranked as according to my rankings...do you need me to repeat it again for you? "
Then you wrote this, and suddenly, you went from bored, opinionated list maker to complete tool.
your the one that sounds bored
sorry for sharing it with you...i guess you'd rather read threads full of idiotic nonsense full of immature comments and argueing about who is a better fighter than who or who can beat who...like a bunch of ten year olds
if i wasn't open to opinions then why did i post it here smart@$$?
a lot of people talk about Zuffa being pro Miletich but...i think they just have a lot of very experienced and talented fighters...i hear they also work very hard at training
ttt
Who are the 7 you came up with from Team Quest?
Couture, Henderson, Lindland, Tanner are obvious...
Sonnen and Leben are almost certain. But that leaves one more spot I'm not so sure about. Heath Sims? Nate Quarry? Ryan Schultz? Dennis Davis?
i forgot who it is...just search my rankings...he's there somewhere
Canada: TKO Managment is not a gym, in Montreal you have Tri-star Gym where top fighters train :
George St-Pierre,
David Loiseau
Ivan Menjivar
Steve Vigneault
and many others...
I looked through all of your rankings and can't find a 7th from Team Quest.
maybe i miss counted...sorry, i cant be perfect at everything
" sorry, i cant be perfect at everything "
So much attitude...
"top ranked as according to my rankings...do you need me to repeat it again for you?"
"if i wasn't open to opinions then why did i post it here smart@$$?"
" sorry, i cant be perfect at everything "
Well someone certainly doesn't like to be questioned or have comments... why post in an open forum if you do not want people respond?
"Well someone certainly doesn't like to be questioned or have comments... why post in an open forum if you do not want people respond?"
i was just joking...you overly sensitive sissy
Cool,
just making an observation and I'm GLAD your not getting upset. I don't get off on getting people mad, I thought you were getting pissed, I was wrong.
