The guy is %100 right.
If you have problem with Islam moving up to no.5 after 8 fights win streak, (he finished 4 of them), then Colby is still being at no.1 due to a single win over Tyron Woodley should bother people more. Woodley at the time was on 2 fights losing streak, and now he is retired, and who was ranked no.5 when Colby fought him in September 2020, it was almost 1 year ago, and that's Colby's only win after getting KOed by Usman.
While Burns just recently beat no.4 ranked Stephen Thompson in the last week, who was on a 2 fights win streak.
It's really a favoritism to rank Colby over Burns due to a single win over the no.5 guy, which was almost 1 year ago.
You can say Burns shouldn't get a title shot early against Usman, since he just recently lost to Usman, but he should still be ranked over Colby at no.1 after that win, instead making Colby to work his way to no.1 spot again, they are still keeping him at no.1 rank, that makes no sense at all.
