I can't believe that he becomes #5 after beating Arlovski by (lucky?) KO. Werdum should be mentioned in the ranking. Randy should disappear and Cain Valesquez should be in the ranking. Barnett should be out since he got caught on steroids. Arlovski was NOT kicked out of the UFC after lackluster performance. This is the common misunderstanding of people who didn't follow AA's career after Tim Svlvia bout. AA fought Werdum, a solid top 10 fighter, and won via decision. The fight was boring but it's because both fighters feared each other. AA has fast hands and better striking technique than Werdum. But Werdum was at that time getting better with striking (joining Chute Boxe) and AA respected Werdum's standup. Also, Werdum's ground is better than AA so AA had to watch out for that. It was Werdum's debut fight and he wanted to play it safe. AA then fought 2 or 3 no names in the UFC, UNDERCARD! People were talking shit on Dana back then for doing this. It made no sense that Chris Leben was fighting main card while AA was fighting under. AA knocked out this opponents via dominating fashion in those fights. Then he went to Affliction and destroyed Ben Rothwell. His boxing looked very crisp and consensus was that AA looks stronger than ever. Then he fought Roy Nelson and knocked him out as well. AA was definitely in the best shape of his career. So, Brett Rogers should be ranked at most #10 (giving him the benefit of the doubt). But #5 above, Dos Santos (who has two solid wins) and Werdum (a solid #10) sounds little ridiculous. Also, Werdum was not KICKED OUT of the UFC. Dana kicked him out because of some other under-the-table reason. Dana screwed Werdum in two ways: 1) Werdum beat Gonzaga and Vera (UFC top 10 HW at the time) in a dominating fashion. He should of fought Nog for the title, NOT Mir. Werdum got robbed so that UFC could have a better chance to dismissing Fedor. Dana never accepted Nog as the HW champ and said Randy is the real champ because Nog lost to Fedor. Dana didn't want two ex-Pride fighters (Nog and Werdum) to compete against two UFC guys (Lesnar and Randy). So instead he revived Mir (a completely washed up fighter) and put him in there against Nog. 2) Werdum was kicked out after the Dos Santos fight. Come on. You get kicked out for a KO like that? Werdum was doing okay before the KO. Chuck Liddell got KTFO 3 times before he was let go. And Chuck DID get KTFO. Werdum should of gotting one of chance. But I remember Dana saying that he was looking for opportunities to let Werdum go. So ask soon as Werdum was knocked out, Dana used that against him and kicked him out.

Let me guess, this is another fighter inflation to make it look like Fedor is fighting real competition, right? Like how Arlovski was suddenly #2 after beating two unranked HWs in Roy Nelson and Ben Rothwell, after being cut from the UFC for lackluster performance. How in the HELL is Brett Rogers #5?
