No way in hell i would ever put him in my top 10... i would have put him in myu top ten before... somewhere in the 10-5 range... definitely not top 5... now he inst even close... and i doubt he will ever earn a title shot in any other weight class or make that much of an impact on lw when he goes back.

Im not denying Hughes's legacy but imo rankings should be on the premise of "what have you done for me lately?".
Well in the last 18months, Serra has beaten and lost to GSP.
Hughes has beaten Lytle and lost to GSP.
So they both have losses to GSP and one other win....I think a win over GSP is worth more than a win over Lytle, PLUS the fact that Serra has also beaten Lytle, so all in all Id currently rank Serra over Hughes. Hughes is undoubtedly a top 10 WW and therefore so is Serra imo.
