#8 Thiago Alves dropped a unanimous decision to #9 Rick Story who then dropped a unanimous decision to #15 Charlie Brennaman leaving the loser of each fight awkwardly ranked above the winner.
#7 Carlos Condit will take on #20 Dong Hyun Kim at UFC 132 this weekend in a bout that is likely less of a mismatch than the rankings might suggest.
UFC 132's feature match was originally scheduled to be #2 Jon Fitch vs #6 B.J. Penn, but injuries derailed the hotly anticipated rematch.
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.
