Bantamweight might have the most talented top 5 in MMA right now.

[Megalodon]

Champ - TJ Dillashaw
1. Cody Garbrandt
2. Dominick Cruz
3. Raphael Assuncao (doesn't get the respect he deserves imo, he's not the most exciting but his only BW loss is TJ)
4. Marlon Moraes
5. Jimmie Rivera

They're all well rounded, dynamic fighters with great striking and grappling, and they all have their own unique style too.

Bantamweight has been so good lately.

 

[KYS]

I absolutely agree. Everyone in the top 5 is a serial killer. Good luck rising to the top in this division.

 

[MMA fan93]

Totally agree. Add Lineker, Dodson to that list and you've got a top 10 where anyone can pretty much beat anyone on any given night. Love it.

Smaller fighters have to be more talented cause they're small. Big dudes just have to connect real nice one or two times...and that is all she wrote.

Manlet blah blah sherbro blah I'd kick their ass.

 

[binny]

I feel like it wasn't that long ago Sherdog was like "wtf is happening at 135?" It's always been one of the best divisions. Great top 5.

 

[Grapplefest]

Khabib
Tony
Conor
Alvarez/Poirier
Lee
Is the best, in my opinion.

 

[YOLOGOGOPLATA]

Screw everyone that hates on "manlets" because 135 might be my favorite division right now. It's either that or LW. Not only are all those guys beasts but Cruz is the only one who isn't a KO artist, and I like his style anyways.

Hahaha, do you like it? Good for you. That’s all that should matter. Stop pushing your views on others.

 

[ArtemV]

I don't know if it is THE most talented, but definitely one of them. LW as really stacked: Khabib, Conor, Ferguson, Lee and Alvarez/Poirier. WW is also pretty stacked: Woodley, Covington, Usman, RDA, Till and Wonderboy.

 

[Reach4theSky]

What about the 205 division..

DC
Gus
Glov...


Nevermind...

 

[skold]

Close call between LW and BW

 

[Koro_11]

Khabib
Tony
Conor
Alvarez/Poirier
Lee

No it’s WW with GSP, Matt Hughes and Frank Trigg?

What? Those guys aren’t there anymore? They’re there as much as Conor is at LW.

I love the BW Division right now. The talent pool is getting bigger and bigger, i dont think it has the best top 5, but the Division is top 5. Many great fighters Dillashaw, Garbrandt, Cruz, Moraes, Lineker, Rivera, Dodson and many more. Lineker vs Moraes would be awesome as a number one Contender fight.

 

[Jarilo]

I absolutely agree. Everyone in the top 5 is a serial killer. Good luck rising to the top in this division.

i didnt watch him yet, but the cousin of Khabib is fighting next weekend, so the bw had they own Nurmagomedov , pretty stacked up.

 

[drbolony]

Yup, been saying this forever, this is the division with with the deadliest top tier. There are 6 guys who can be champ on any given night, that's insane!

Anyone of those 6 matched up is a dope fight!

What do you think a forum is for?

Bw top 5 > Lw top 5
