Now, the big one... My rankings for this season of #DWCS!

First, a disclaimer: We are going to disagree. There's simply no way we're all going to reach a consensus when ranking 46 fighters.

My rankings are based primarily on each fighter's UFC potential, current skill set, DWCS performance, and my previous tape study. I don't weigh every factor equally. For example, if a fighter had a poor showing on DWCS but looked excellent in previous fights, I'll rank them higher than someone who impressed on the Contender Series but didn't stand out as much on tape. Others might put more weight on what they saw on the night, and that's perfectly fine.

A few fighters have already made their UFC debuts and picked up wins, but I've ranked everyone based on how I evaluated them throughout the season. Those UFC performances shouldn't have influenced my rankings too much.

Finally, this isn't an exact science. These are MY OPINIONS. I'm happy to read constructive criticism, hear different perspectives, and discuss alternative rankings in the comments.

That said, I won't entertain insults or smug takes from people who haven't watched a single regional MMA fight in their lives but still feel qualified to shit on other people's rankings.

Let's hear your thoughts!
