#10 Melvin Guillard, #13 Dennis Siver and #15 George Sotiropoulos will all compete against unranked opponents this Saturday at UFC 132.
At UFC 130, #18 Gleison Tibau submitted unranked Rafaello Oliveira in the night's lone lightweight tilt.
#7 Clay Guida decisioned #11 Anthony Pettis at The Ultimate Fighter 13 dropping Pettis out of the top 10 and out of the running for a title shot.
#23 Sam Stout flashed knockout power that would make his nickname appear slightly less ridiculous for at least one night when he KO'd Yves Edwards at UFC 131.
Based on the premise that all MMA rankings are subjective but that it’s still useful and informative to know who the online MMA community as a whole ranks as the best fighters in MMA, we collect and average the rankings of the top MMA websites to produce our consensus rankings. We compile the top MMA rankings from each of our sources and award 25 points for a first place ranking, 16 for a 10th place ranking, 1 for a 25th place ranking. A formula is used to "normalize" the data so all fighters are awarded points from those lists that do not include a full 25 fighters. This formula ensures that each ranking site awards the same number of total points regardless of how many fighters they choose to rank. Each fighter’s total is divided by the number of possible points to determine their standing in the Consensus Rankings.
