...Just cracked my top 10.  I'm sure he's honored.

Seriously though, awesome knockout.  I gotta stop betting against this guy.

I think you're right and hope you're right in the 2nd part. I love watching Sandro fight.

Curran has made a fan out of me.  I was skeptical of him back when he was winning questionable decisions over Huerta and Imada.  He really came into his own in the featherweight tournament.

kept Sandro in my top ten but just barely..bumped Griffin out to make room for Curran but he'll probably be back with a win

Definitely becoming harder to rank the FWs. I'm a fan of Manny but his ranking was mostly based on the KO of Brown, which is still impressive despite his last 3 fights, and when you consider the close fight with Garcia, I could definitely see his ranking becoming "softer".

But even more of a dilemna is the overall underperformance of practically everyone from JMMA: Omigawa's SD loss even if it was a bad decision (although Elkins does hold a win over Curran), Sandro's lack of dominance in Bellator, Takaya being KOed by Garcia and Cub Swanson in the WEC a couple of years ago but still splitting a pair with Fernandez who subbed Freire.

In short a cluster****.

They need to add Yuri Alcantara, Antonio Carvalho (holds a win over Hioki), and Alexandre Bezerra to the database because I think I'd add all 3 in favor of Kanehara, Fernandez, and possibly Warren. That doesn't even include Malegarie, Ronnie Mann, or Genair da Silva who've impressed me but until then here's my latest.

Oops. Just rereading my above post. Bibiano didn't sub Freire but Warren.
