Based on what exactly? His only loss is to Rashad Evans.
the bisping argument. :icon_lol:
"he's only lost to great fighters."

That's Davis only lost.
Now be honest, do you really think Gus could beat Rashad?
You can say the same thing about Gustaffsson.
Gus has beaten better competition? Sure...but not competition with actual wrestling. Sure Davis got schooled by Rashad, but he hung in there for five rounds. I'd like to see how Gus. will deal with Jones or Rashad.
The he beat Shogun argument is not what it used to be
5-5 in the UFC
You've obviously missed the point but keep rambling on about your favorite fighter for us.
and you missed my point. please keep assuming you know who my favorite fighter is though. heaven forbid that someone try to make a logical and rational argument without being accused of nut-hugging.
I think this is this exactly how a lot of people are judging rankings and that's why they're confused. That's just not how the rankings actually work...
The ranking system does not use the "what have you done for me lately" philosophy, Sherdog posters are the ones that do. Currently, the rankings correctly have Davis over Gus, the posters here are the ones trying to say that's wrong when, in reality, they're just using flawed logic.
Phil beat Gus until Gus beats him or wins the belt from JJ he won't be above Phil anytime soon just for beating Shogun and Thiago.
Look at this:
This is a logical and rational argument. Your argument is crap.
the "he beat lil nog argument" is worth even less. he lnp'd hogerio, and minotouro has an abysmal record in the ufc. using the "he beat gustafsson(2.5 years ago) is also suspect. let's throw babulu ahead of shogun while we're at it.

that's a load of sh't. you can't justify ranking davis over gustafsson in one breath then ignore the fact that evans is ranked ahead of machida. it's obviously inconsistent and moronic. but if the shoe fits...
