Top 10 fighters - why are they not elite?

[AimedWithV]

Sonnens wrestling was almost enougn to beat prime Silva.

I agree! The irony here is - in MMA, you can be the toughest opponent of the most dominant champ in the sport's history, and still have undeveloped aspects of the game.

What proof do we have that Nick is even a top ten fighter in 2016?

His 12 year old victory over Lawler? His loss to Condit?

He hasn't fought Thompson, Hendricks, Rory, Woodley, Maia, Brown, Tarec, Lombard, Magny, Gunnar, Stun Gun, Alves, or Gastelum.
