MMASucka Light Heavyweight Rankings – August 2014

It’s rankings time.

We are back at MMASucka.com digging into the light heavyweight rankings.

Obviously the champ Jon Jones is sitting at the top, but how does the rest of the 205-pound division stack up?

Each MMASucka.com staff member chose their top 10 list (see each individual pick click HERE) and the fighters were each scored by the following: 10 points for first place, nine points or second place, etc. with the person ranked in tenth getting one point. After each list was received, the scores were tallied and the results of the MMASucka.com rankings are below. All fighters were eligible to be added to each individuals rankings, with no BS inactivity “rules.”
