How on earth could you ever put Franklin above silva? Doesn't make any sense...There is still a case for Rich Franklin to be considered top MW ever, thus far. I believe Silva was roided to the gills when he twice beat Ace. Weidman is my favorite MW of all time, but with his loss to Rockhold, I think there is an argument for Rich still.
Rockhold/Jacare was close, and a lot of people disagreed with the decision. I need to rewatch it, because it's been well-over a year since my last viewing.
Maia had pretty damn good wrestling at MW, too. His rag-dolling of Sonnen was impressive as hell.
I know this is a safe-haven for opinions that go against the grain, but you can GTFO for that kind of slander. Disgusting.Bacon is overrated.
