Notable Info
- The Heavyweights are eerily quiet this week, with absolutely no movement in the Top 50.
- Forrest Griffin barely holds onto his Top 4 spot at Light Heavyweight after being blitzed by Anderson Silva.
- The decision in Sakara/Leites creates a bit of a mess in the bottom of the Middleweight top 15. After proving himself as a top 15 fighter with several quality wins, Leites drops two straight and just maybe gets the short end of the stick in this decision. As a result, Sakara now finds himself in the Top 15 at Middleweight.
- BJ Penn reclaims the top spot at Lightweight with a commanding win over Kenny Florian, who fell to #8.
- Brian Bowles pulls off the upset as he stops Miguel Torres in the first round. As a result, Bowles takes the top spot at Bantam, and also rises to #2 in Division Dominance. Perhaps a bit of a stretch, but he’s an undefeated, universally recognized champion who just scored a 1st round stoppage over the best Bantamweight in history. Torres drops to #2 at Bantam, and #9 in Division Dominance.
- Jesse Taitano’s attempt to put Guam on the map has stalled, as he dropped a unanimous decision to Noboru Tahara in an 118 pound match. Taitano falls out of the Top 15 at Flyweight.
