He didn't beat BJ at LW though. Anderson beat Sakurai at WW, bunch of top 5 MWs at 185, and of course Forest at 205.
And IIRC Forest technically beat the #1 fighter in his division in two fights in a row. I think Shogun was ranked #! but when Forest upset him Rampage was moved to the #1 spot since no one believed Forest was the best despite upsetting the top ranked guy. So he had to do it again.
Correct, he had to do it twice to earn his rank. They were both #1 LHW and #2 p4p when Forest beat them.

Uno - LW
Hughes - WW

Not saying its better / worse
But Silva isn't the only one
