Even though I ordered them, I tend to think more in terms of tiers than a strict ordinal ranking:
Tier 1:
1. GSP
2. Fedor
3. Jones
4. Silva
Tier 2:
5. Aldo
6. Mighty Mouse
7. Matt Hughes
Tier 3:
8. Big Nog
9. DC
10. Henderson
Tier 1:
1. GSP
2. Fedor
3. Jones
4. Silva
Tier 2:
5. Aldo
6. Mighty Mouse
7. Matt Hughes
Tier 3:
8. Big Nog
9. DC
10. Henderson

Gsp for his outstanding record
Gsp for his impeccable conduct
Gsp for his successful comeback
Fedor for his unbeaten decade
DC for his record (only lost to one cheating man)
Silva for his mastery (but now should retire)
Khabib for his total dominance (so far)
Conor for his titles run (starching Aldo and everyone in his way)
Jones for his total dominance (would be second without the peds tainting his whole legacy)

1-Jon Jones
2-MM
3-GSP
4-Weidman
5-Machida
6-AS
7-Holloway
8 through 16 would be Shogun,Shad,Rampage,Joe B,Aldo, Gus, DC, Werdum and Hendo. Really hard to put any of those guys above the other. Aldo was probably higher last time I made this sort of list but hey last time would be before Max lost to Dustin and Aldo lost to Volk. Both those events hurt Aldo's stature in this discussion IMO. Probably had Holloway higher as well.

What's crazy about this list is in 2013 it would have made much more sense IMO.

Yeah i know DC in the top 5 is unpopular, there's a strong argue for DJ to not only be in the top 5 but to be even in the top 3 and i wouldn't disagree with that list
