And no, I don't think Aoki could beat most of the top 10 but he doesn't have a loss to a LW outside of the Hansen loss except for Gil and has the W over Eddie so my personal rules about results over opinion forces me to keep him there.

Interesting how fast Charles Olivera and George Sotoropolis have fallen.  Aoki is a one-trick pony, but he is extreamly fun to watch.  He will be looming outside the top 10 for a while.  He could beat everybody in the top 50, but no-one in the top 10-15. 

*edit:  My top 10 is a combo of "best" and "favorite"

Just any win Thiago? He's not even scheduled. Like to see him matched up with Oliveira for spot in my top 20. Both coming off a loss.

I agree with you, Oliveira if he is staying at lightweight. If not maybe Dunham.

They might do him like Dunham and give him an "easy" fight first (yeah I know) like Bailey. Hope they don't. Only 7 fights scheduled now in the LW division and I have 54 fighters still on the roster although Fisher, Riley, and McKenzie are questionable.

Eddie Alvarez needs to get in the ring and kick someone's ass so I can validate having him so high in my rankings.  I can see why a lot of people have him listed outside of #5.  Talent-wise, I feel like he's right up there with Edgar, Melendez, and the rest of the crew.  He's just been fairly inactive this year.

Ok here goes. 
Available LWs coming off a win (sort of in order of how I rank them) : Edgar, Melendez (hopefully), Sherk (long layoff makes scheduling him a little more flexible), Pettis, Diaz, Barboza, Dunham, Lentz, Wiman, Stout, C. Miller, Tavares, Grant, Volkmann, Edwards, and Ferguson.
Grant/Volkmann and Edward/Ferguson both seem obvious to me. Edgar/Melendez or Melendez vs. loser of Clay/Ben. Would love to see Pettis/Barboza, Diaz/Dunham but the leaves Lentz as the only one Wiman hasn't already faced.
Coming off a loss: Maynard, Jim Miller, Melvin, Stephens, GST, Danzig, Oliveira, Pearson, Gomi, Shalorus.
Maynard will be the most difficult. I say either Sherk or Melvin. Would be a great win for either. I would love to see Gomi/Stephens in Japan, GST/Oliveira, and Danzig/Pearson.
Whaddya think? Is Joe Silva's job in danger? :)
