It's Time To Vote! FIGHT FORUM'S Official Rankings Thread -- December

[Heatwaves]

Your Vote Counts! It’s time for Fight Forum members to gather and rank the TOP 10 UFC fighters for each weight class.

Here are the rules for those of you who are unfamiliar:

1. Around the last week of every month, I’ll post a new thread for all Fight Forum members (mods are welcome as well) to rank their Top 10 UFC Fighters for each division.

2. Member rankings will end on Friday, November 30th at 8:00 PM PST. I’ll then calculate all of the votes from each participating member to determine that month’s “Fight Forum Member’s Official UFC Rankings” and post a new thread with the official results of the Top 10 fighters in each weight class.

3. If you’re wondering how the calculations will be made, I’ll assign points for the ranking you give them. I.E. 10 points for 1st, 9 pts for 2nd, on down to 1 pt for 10th. The fighter with the most collective points in a particular weight class will be ranked 1st overall and so on.

4. Since you’re posting your Top 10 list for all to see, please maintain your integrity and vote with as little bias as possible. For example, if you’re a huge Bisping fan and place him as the #1 LHW fighter in the UFC then everyone will know you’re a tool.

5. The UFC rankings are intended to be for the upcoming month, not all-time. For rankings to be included in the overall results, all fighters must either have fought in the UFC within the last 12 months, have a current UFC fight scheduled or be signed to a new UFC contract, thereby qualifying their intentions to fight in the UFC in the near future.

6. For rankings to count, you must rank all ten fighters for each weight class. If you only rank six fighters at MW, for example, your rankings will not be included in the final tally.

7. You may edit your rankings after you first make them. If you edit, however, you must PM me to let me know that you’ve done so. I usually tally the rankings on a daily basis, so if you edit them later and don’t notify me, I will not know and your previous rankings will remain.

Here are my rankings for December:

As always, I’ve included a list of UFC fighters for those who don’t want to overlook fighters. This isn’t intended to be a 100% comprehensive list, it’s merely a guideline of some of the more notable or recent UFC fighters. I’ve also included their overall records, their UFC records and their current overall win/loss streak, based upon sherdog fight data.

How can two of you put Liddell as the #1 LHW after coming off two losses?

I have my favorite fighters too but to make the best rankings possible I do it with as little bias as I can.

I have my favorite fighters too but to make the best rankings possible I do it with as little bias as I can.

Maybe because he rates his fighters as I do, by taking into account that fighters can have a couple of off performances and still be the best. I rate fighters by thinking of them all fighting to their very best of their ability. Hence I will also have Chuck at the top of my list.

What's the point in criticising people's picks anyway?! If we all had the same picks it wouldn't be worth doing this whole thing...

This is silly.

Anyway...I'll put up my rankings soon and you have my permission to cut and paste mine.
