Bigfoot ranked #15 prior to Big Country fight...

[Otto!]

Before fighting Big Country, Bigfoot had only 1 win in last 7 fights, and yet he was ranked #15. I've always known that HW is shallow, but isn't this a bit ridiculous? Not that rankings seem to matter much in the UFC these days anyways.

He should definitely be number 16 now.

Indeed! If he had won he would probably be the interim champ...

And How many HWs there are in UFC? 16 or 17?

A lot of times the UFC will bump a fighter up in rankings before a fight, if you noticed he wasn't on there about a month ago, then was the fight was announced he bumped up to #15. Makes for better rankings which makes for more money and that's all that matters unfortunately

HW is pretty thin, with a couple victories one can talk about title contention.

I can't even name 15 HW fighters period let alone those who are better than Bigfoot.
