Tyson is still up and coming in the LW division similar to how Marcus Davis is in WW. Tyson need to show they can dominate someone before he can be the number one contender.

Kenny is soo overrated! Huerta is gonna high kick him into oblivian! Then Huerta should get the winner of Tyson vs Nate (so basically Huerta vs Diaz for #1 contender)

in the UFC Griffen has not fought anyone but Edgar and Lost!!! Edgar lost to Maynard! Huerta has only fought Guida! Florian has only lost to the Champ and no one else in the LW division!! He has fought more than Edgar and Griffen and Huerta have in the UFC and He finishes fights!! I really don't see where the debate is! Edgar and Griffen have fought better comp than Huerta!! People need to get off his nuts till he proves something!! Just like Nate!!.... Hell why not Manny G since we are trying to tout untested fighters!! Because Nate is a better Marketing tool than Manny even though Manny will run through Diaz...! Maynard needs 2 quality wins before he can be considered as do most of the LW's

Gray Maynard should get a shot before Griffin. Griffin loses to Edgar, who gets beat by Maynard. Hell I like Edgar better than Griffin right now, How about a rematch?

I disagree

Tyson is potentially a future champ no doubt but he had too many close decisions last year where Kenny has won fights decisively.

I could not agree more. I have Tyson as number one contender with Huerta has #2

Florian's been great, but he's had a shot
