Media Dana White consulting Mark Zuckerberg on UFC ranking issues

[koa pomaikai]

Jon Jones about to be P4P no.1 again.

 

[Subline]

If he wants to use an algorithm to make the rankings, either Jones will not be #1 or the rankings will be a complete mess with former champions/ATGs in the top 15 P4P.

Imo, there should be a clear criteria that outlines the time period of which fights are considered. I.e only fights within the last 3 years.

 

[JustOnce]

Lmao. This guy just randomly shat out the rankings one day.

And now he is going to talk to Zuckerberg about it lmaaaaaaaaaaaaao.

Why stop there, why not try to talk to Bill Gates too?

yea, he needs AI to "fix" the rankings, so Conor could be top 5 in 3 divisions at the same time.

Lmao what a joke

 

[Wilmer Digreux]

Do the rankings really matter that much anyway?

When he means Zuckerberg, he means Meta. which is certainly a company with the means to give AI the best chance of coming up with a dynamic rankings algorithm(s) and modeling from a deep data set and giving us a reasonable outputs.

 

[volodya]

Lol at his stupid smirk when he name drops Zuckerberg. Dana is the coolest!

nah with most AI fight ranking systems you have to fight at least once every year to even be ranked much less pound for pound. it also looks at your last 3 opponents within 3 years and gives score based on toughness of opponenets and strength of schedule. jones would score bare minimum for all those. as he hasnt had 3 opponents within 3 years, and has only fought once in 4 years.
for example this AI ranking system https://www.fightmatrix.com/mma-ranks/ jones isnt even in the top 15 p4p. as he doenst meet the reuirements to be ranked.

 

[Lord Pyjamas]

Can you do both at the same time?

 

[wildchild88]

Just another tactic to make unimportant shit seem important, it's all part of the M.O.

Sanko will probably talk about it during the broadcast.

 

[DougieJones]

Zuck's advice to Dana was to wait until someone else invented an AI ranking system and then say it was his the whole time

AKA the Facebook way

 

[wh4tttt]

We've promoted Darren Elkins with the help of meta to develop the Ai ranking system.

What will Dana say when that AI puts Khalil at #11? He just needs to pay the secretary that inputs the rankings after tabulating the "Media" votes to reflect what is "Correct".

 

[BroRogan]

Dana, pass it on. Utter nonsense that whole discussion and a lot of UFC rankings are wank.

Zuckerberg would probably give the advice to delete every Sherdog account who won't put Jones #1 and Conor #2

 

[Neck&Neck]

Dana is losing the plot

Just hire an ex fighter like Chuck or BJ to do the rankings

[podsox]

I forget what podcast I was listening to last week but they asked AI for its light heavyweight rankings and roundtree wasn’t ranked on theirs. Would’ve loved to have Dana live for it

 

[NoSmilez]

They need that AI that predicted Taira was going to lose by split before the fight was over.
