love the next fight listed aspect
I would like to see Thiago Silva ranked ahead of Lawal and Mousasi but maybe that is his fault for losing to Machida and Evans. I guarantee you he will force the UFC to give Boetsch his walking papers a second time.

Coleman shouldn't have pull out of the Impact main event vs Ken Shamrock. Would have been a nice win for his resume instead of Rizzo getting credit. I'd like to see Coleman ranked top 30 and get another shot in the UFC. He did beat Bonnar and Rua fairly recently.
