[...] Posted by Dempsey Roll Who cares, he's not a top 50 mma fighter. Thats a matter of opinion. Fight Matrix | Current MMA Rankings » Light Heavyweight [...]
I know but maybe the blocking algorithm shouldn’t take effect based on split/close decisions. It’s not like Rampage/Machida was a decisive win for Rampage.
But Rampage/Henderson was 4 years ago…
I assume Henderson’s rise is due to the blocking algorithm not allowing Machida over Rampage? The logic there is a bit suspect since Rampage beat Henderson more decisively than he beat Machida.
Even though his last fight was at 195, and he’s only had one fight at 185 that I know of.. it was in the previous one, so I’ll set him back to 185 on our next update.
Vitor Vianna is a middle weight not a light-heavy weight.
Both Alexander Gustafsson and Phil Davis are higher in reality. My boys are climbing though.
[...] Both Jimmo (15-1), who has fought 10 times under the MFC banner, and Sokoudjou (12-8) have recently signed multi-fight contracts, and they will meet head-on for the championship. Both fighters are highly seeded in the world rankings – Jimmo at No. 25 and Sokoudjou at No. 30, according to Fight Matrix (http://www.fightmatrix.com/mma-ranks/light-heavyweight-185-205-lbs). [...]
