Your new WW rankings

[Fight Professor]

Technically you put the last champion as the #2 ranked, just like Belal was before JDM/Islam. But not in terms of being the #1 contender or getting the next shot.

That's always been my problem with UFC rankings - it is supposed to determine the contenders.

Did you see what Usman did to Buckley? Leon beat him 2x. Just because Prates knocked him out with a nasty punch doesn't mean Buckley can do the same. If Prates didn't knock him out he was going to lose the fight as Leon was already wall and stalling and taking him down.

Usmans a lot stronger then Edwards

C - Islam
1 - JDM
2 - Belal
3 - Morales (could be at #2)
4 - Prates
5 - Shavkat
6 - Garry
7 - Brady
8 - Usman
9 - Buckley
10 - Leon

What are yours?

Whoever wins between Belal/Garry takes #2

C-islam
1-shavkat
2-garry
3-usmen
4-jdm
5-belal
6-morales
7-brady
8-prates
9-buckley
10-leon

This is imo the top 10 based on wins and skill and fights with also who they've beaten and who deserves to be where and up for a title fight next.
And let's be real the only guys who have a shot of beating Islam are my top 3

Your #3 isn't beating anyone in top 6 though. Even Brady and Prates would be tough fights for him at this point.

Outside of a one shot KO, the only way to beat Islam is to pick him apart from the outside without letting him push you up against the cage. The only ones that can do this are JDM (I still believe he has the tools, just had very very poor execution), and Morales. The rest have little to no chance.

Shavkat could be higher but has been inactive. Prates above Morales but could be interchangeable.

C - Islam
1 - Prates
2 - Morales
3 - Garry
