Video: The UFC Tonight Panel breaks down UFC Power Rankings

UFC Tonight analysts Ariel Helwani, Chael Sonnen and Kenny Florian gave their take on the newly official UFC Fighter Rankings. The analysts had some serious issues with the first set of rankings, what do you think?

“I never understood what the fascination is with putting a number next to someone’s name. I did this my entire 10 years of college with girls I dated and I can assure you it never ended well. First and foremost, when people judge (other) people it’s never fair. You got a bunch a media guys who really don’t know a ton about the sport and every time you say that they take it as a huge insult but the reality is they don’t. They go into a press conference with one thing, they hear the boss Dana White say something, they change their rankings on the spot so they can get into that big steak dinner the UFC hands out with the press conference. Let’s make sure we understand how they came to be.”
