When fighters are suspended they get removed from the rankings in the mean time.
they pulled him from the rankings after his PED/USADA incident. His suspension ends July 12 so I suspect he'll be put back soon.
lol yep I noticed that. Fucking joke. I can't remember the specifics of when they pulled Romero. It seems like they won't pull a fighter immediately but if Lyoto and Mir get 2 years, they'll be taken out.It's funny because not only is Mir still ranked but he actually went up a spot last time they updated it

Did anything happen (besides this) after the second sample was revealed positive? Mir said he'd retire and not only did that not happen now he moved up the rankings? The fuck?
Apparently Mir ranking up had something to do with Brock coming back and getting ranked by some people, I don't know. It's still retarded.
He doesn't sound like he's retiring now, he implied he'd probably come back after the 2 years if he can't appeal
it's not that USADA tells the UFC/media not the rank the fighter. The media members simply don't include them in the update if that fighter is gonna be gone due to PED suspensionOkay thanks. So this is a new USADA thing? I remember in the past even when popped fighters still appeared in the rankings.

Yep you got it. Brock's back so let's boost his old opponents.next week randy and Carwin will be 3 and 4It's funny because not only is Mir still ranked but he actually went up a spot last time they updated it
I was just going over the UFC rankings right now and I realized Romero isn't ranked. When did this happen, and why is this the case?
