Is Chael Sonnen better than Anderson Silva?

Every time a ranking is updated, people argues about positions. Although, the American website “Fight” crossed the limits. After the victory over Nate Marquardt, the American Chael Sonnen went to the top of the category ranking, leaving Anderson Silva, UFC champion and record breaker of victories and titles defenses on UFC, behind.

But it wasn’t just the ranking of the middleweights that made people talk. On the category above, Lyoto Machida is on the deserved first place, but Maurício “Shogun” Rua, next contender of the title, is only on seventh. Before him, they putted Randy Couture, who submitted Mark Coleman.

On featherweights, José Aldo, WEC champion, was the third, leaving the top to the compatriot Bibiano Fernandes, Dream’s GP champion. The Japanese Michihiro Omigawa got the second place. At least they didn’t put Brock Lesnar as number one of heavyweights. This place is still safe with Fedor Emelianenko.
