We know ranking mean shit nowadays...but it still is funny how he isnt even in the top 15 UFC LHW rankings.
He could be the greatest talent we ever seen perform in an octagon and has never been beaten (aside from the DQ)
Yet he hasn't been ranked for years, came back ranked 1 beat OSP, left again....came back for a title shot with DC ranked 1....won the belt, got it stripped and again no longer in the rankings. It makes sense, but it doesnt.
I dont know how I feel about fighters being ranked 1 taking years off whether it by choice (GSP), injury or suspension and returning as rank 1.
Does a fighter stay the rank they were when they left always? If Jones was able to come back tomorrow, would he jump the line AGAIN and be next for the title?
