Ranking are based on past achievements, and as of this moment, Kimbo doesn't have enough to show for himself. That will change if he beats Thompson, which I think he will.

Should be enough to move Kimbo into the top 60 HW's... as Thompson is currently ranked at #69 at the most comprehensive, least biased ranking system I know of:

Thats 27 right there. If he's better than Ricco or Giant Silva (who were two of the last fighters I thought of) then EXC should put him up against one of them since they fight for the same org.
You can remove Lesnar from that list. Give Kimbo some credit hehe.

Oh yeah because he has what 3 fights and his most legit opponent was Tank? I don't have anything against Kimbo, I enjoy watching him fight, but come on. What happens if James Thompson beats him? Does that mean Thompson would be number 9 in the UFC?

Kimbo will be top 10 when he beats someone in top 10

I had some dumbass at a party telling me how Kimbo was going to be UFC champ. I'm not sure where beating up a bunch of street guys and bouncers suddenly gives you the ability to beat professionally trained fighters, but apparently to some retards it does.

why can't you guys be as racially aware as me and just accept that kimbo is a human being and a guy that is at least a better fighter then eddie sanches

he would be a top 10 in any organization..

I mean he's like a top 5 heavy weight in the elite XC...so I don't see why anyone would consider him not good enough for the UFC
Do you find it difficult to conceal your lobotomy stitches? That has to be the most moronic assertion that I've read here in the last... 5 minutes. Kimbo lost to Sean Gannon who was a not even a C level MMA fighter in a fight where no knees or grappling was aloud (took place in the school where I take BJJ in RI). He would be obliterated by Kongo or ANY UFC heavyweight with a ground game.
