I've always found the fight matrix rankings to be..interesting. However, that said, the fact remains that the UFC needs flyweights, and Sampo has proven himself extremely capable of hanging with, and beating, top level talent. I was honestly surprised he wasn't signed after the Banuelos fight.

Then bump somebody... can't say you have the best if the #2 ranked in the world is not on the roster.

Ely was robbed.

Ortiz looked bad against Ely. He'd get thrashed in the UFC.

Vila's hype train hasn't just been dreailed, it's crashed off a cliff and exploded in a giant ball of flames.

Haven't seen the fight, just the result. Not very knowledgable on the flyweights, but I do keep tabs on the Flys who are perhaps close to being signed.

Montague, Sampo, Vila, Santella, Alexandre Pantoja, Sergio Pettis, Sem Chance, Lopes, Mamoru, Docyogen, Kojima.
All these guys need to get signed by UFC.

I don't think Pettis has fought at 125 yet.

Sampos fought the toughest guys not in the UFC. Buenelos, vila and compazano all in the last year. Going 2-1! Hes also the most exciting flyweight not signed. He has never turned down a fight, Dana needs to call him up!
