current fighters with the most top10 wins - constant updates.(!!!***big list***!!!)

[resterbornios**]

the list is based on rankings from reputable sites like sherdog, mmaringereport, mmanews, mmaweekly,.... back to the year of 2000.
the research took me a lot of time. i just wanted to know which current fighter had the most quality wins, it's not about who is the best p4p or whatever.

a top 10 win counts only when you fight him on the weight where he is ranked at.

example: fedor defeated lindland(ranked mw). it doesn't count because he fought fedor at hw. if fedor would have fought him at his own weight, i would count it.

anderson's ww wins count because he fought them at their own weight.

if you have any questions, ask me. i will post the result here in order to avoid the reiteration of the same question.

-Sakuraba and Wanderlei were ranked when Crocop defeated them, but not at HW

-Chuck Liddell was ranked vs Shogun
MMA News Written by Josh Gross from Sports Illustrated
Monday, 23 March 2009
6. Chuck Liddell (U.S.)

-Miller was not ranked against GSP.

miller was ranked after defeating Falaniko Vitale, which was a good fighter that time.

-Lindland was ranked, but at MW, he fought fedor at HW

-Arona was not ranked vs Fedor

-bustamante was ranked at mw, not at lhw when he fought rampage

-ludwig was a top 5 lw when he fought penn at ww, which was the best ww at the time, so it doesn't count

-Penn was only the first time a ranked WW vs GSP

-Schilt was 8-10 and Hunt around 5-7, both were ranked when fedor fought them

[Kim Yu Sin]

For GSP - Nearly 100% that Karo was, pretty sure about Trigg and less certain about Miller.

[Djangoman2k]

Karo definitely was

[sabean]

GSP fought Hughes 3 times. Trigg was, in that fight Rogan said it's like #2 and #2 WW's against eachother. Karo as well. Mayhem is debateable.

[catspajamas200***]

GSP's resume is much more impressive than any other. He puts Fedor to shame.

i count only wins. added trigg, have to think about karo, because he wasn't ranked on sherdog at the time, so i'm not sure if i should add him. i think he was ranked for the first time after defeating nick diaz.

Fedor has 0 real losses and GSP has a few. Which fluke losses has he come close to? Fujita rocked him hard but didn't drop him, and Randleplex didn't even hurt him.
