Travis Browne should not be on there. Let alone ahead of Mir.

Haven't updated mine yet, but Cain will only fall to #2 with Junior obviously moving up.

i think velasquez can beat jds. he was doing great but simply got caught. he should have utilized his wrestling advantage

I think he didn't beat JDS though.  That's the relevant point, as I see it.

There's a ranking for favorite fighters, and I wish people would use it for their favorite fighters instead of ranking them number one divisionally.  You tell me Alistair Overeem is your favorite fighter, that's cool.  Tell me he's the number one heavyweight, you're an idiot.

We can't tell the future and no HW champ has had a long reign. But rankings are about now not tomorrow. If JDS loses he will lose the top spot but as of today he is #1.

No one would rank Overeem # 1 unless they're biased towards him(or against Dos Santos).  It defies logic.  Take a long hard look at Overeem's record and think to yourself, "Is this the record of the number one heavyweight in the world?"
