Updated UFC Middleweight Rankings
Champion : Anderson Silva

2 Vitor Belfort
3 Yushin Okami
4 Michael Bisping
5 Costa Philippou
6 Ronaldo Souza
7 Luke Rockhold
8 Mark Munoz
9 Chael Sonnen
10 Tim Boetsch
IMO Vitor should be over Weidman. OKami is ranked too high & Boetsch beat him. Souza hasn’t done enough & Rockhold the last Strikeforce MW champ beat him. Munoz should be higher. Chael should be much higher if he was still a MW. Carmont is undefeated at 5-0 in UFC.
MY MW ranking are as follows.
1 Vitor Belfort
2 Chris Weidman
3 Michael Bisping
4 Luke Rockhold
5 Mark Munoz
6 Costa Philippou
7 Tim Boetsch
8 Yushin Okami
9 Ronaldo Souza
10 Francis Carmont

Fight Camp Update: UFC on FX 8
Nice event last night, there were ups and downs, action, but sometimes it was a little bit slow. First of all, great job by the UFC giving the fight of the night to Martins and Larsen who were on the facebook portion of the card. Personally, I think Masaranduba should have got the sub of the night over Jacare considering that he finished his arm triangle from half guard. Zeferino looked good in the first round, until he began to fade, then Natal just took over the fight. I’m interested to see how Zeferino would have fared with a full training camp, and the UFC may decide to give him another shot in the big show. Dunham vs dos Anjos ended in a very controversial decision for dos Anjos – unanimous, no less. I thought it was a close fight, but in the end, I had Dunham winning the 2nd and 3rd rounds. No octagon jitters for Jacare last night, he went out there and took care of business by dominating Camozzi in every aspect of the fight. Ask most people what they thought about the main event last night, and chances are you will see three letters in succession: T-R-T. It’s kind of upsetting that a guy as talented as Vitor is tarnishing his legacy in this way. Even if what he accomplishes is pure skill, people will always point to the TRT that undermines his hard work and accomplishments. He could go out and beat Anderson Silva tomorrow and there will always be an asterix beside it in the eyes of the fans. On the other hand, it’s sure to do great things for his wallet, and isn’t that why these guys fight in the first place?

UFC on FX 8 Points
Leading the charge for our camp last night was EllisD1 with a huge 104 points. He was a contender last season, and he greatly redeemed himself from a poor first event – way to bounce back. nomomrnicekyle placed first in our inaugural event, and here he is, holding it down in the 2nd place spot – It’s great to be consistent, but to be consistently great is just scary… Machida949 posts up his biggest score ever on the playground, putting him in 3rd place for this event. Banned2 also posts up his largest score ever, 100 points right on the nose lands him in 4th place. We have a tie for 5th place between bvrasp and lilgunned with the rest of the pack in hot pursuit.
Overall Points
He was last season’s silver medalist, last night’s silver medalist, but in the overall rankings he’s golden – He’s nomomrnicekyle… How does he do it? I bet he’s on TRT. bvrasp is in 2nd place, followed by relative newcomer Hellfirex11 who came up from 5th place to settle into 3rd. Trip_2 was tied for 7th before last night, and he ended up 4th, good deal. botl435 also made big strides, rounding out the top 5 with a leap from 11th place. This season is just getting started, so anyone could come back to win it in the end. Keep the pressure on, stay consistent, and never… EVER… miss an event, mahalo.
