UFC/Pride Light Heavyweight Champions with least-to-most Top 10 ranked wins at Light Heavyweight.

[markg171]

Congratulations on contradicting yourself in a single post <Lmaoo>.

Your logic: any title/vacant title/interim title win counts as a top ten ranked win, regardless of the opponent.
Also your logic: Sonnen and Belfort don't have to count as top ten ranked wins even though they were both title defenses.

No you're just being retarded, like your system, seeing as every LHW Jon has fought for a title WAS top 10. He's not some title fighter who ever fought a random Joe Soto during that period. The number should be very simple to estimate off title wins alone even before you add in other additional wins like Bader pre-title.

When the numbers so obviously don't align, it's a sign your system is shit. Not Jones' competition.

I just knew this would be based on shitty FightMatrix rankings.

Except I don't need to go back to the 90s when Jon Jones, the universal LHW GOAT, has 14 title wins alone (15 if you wanted to throw in DC 2), yet according to this FightMatrix is giving him only 11 top wins.

Take away Chael and Vitor for being MWs sure, but it's just a blatantly bad system when the numbers just so obviously don't add up on basic things.

Are you only counting LHW wins?

Are you only counting LHW wins?

As the thread title specifies, "...top 10 ranked wins at light heavyweight."
