You're right, ranking ultimately doesn't matter. But since we here on Sherdog like to pretend that it does, I see no argument for putting Khabib over Ferguson. Ferguson has no history of repeated, severe injuries, he's proven himself against top fighters, his style is far more exciting imo, and he's not shit-talking everyone while unable to fight and he hasn't ducked anyone - Khabib is pretty clearly ducking Aldo at this point.
I don't see a good argument either, but I don't see a good argument for a lot of things teh UFC does. They're installing their narrative, and that's how they're going to play it. I personally hope they're bullshitting and FergusonKhabib gets made, but it is what it is.
