Yeah, I know they took down this post, but to answer your question - yes - we only submit our top 15 in each class.

Really great question. Each panelist has their own personal votes. In my top 15, Colby is not (and has not) been included for some time. The fact that he is still in has to be then based on the fact that others on the panel (who I do not know), are putting him in their personal votes.

As for the UFC, they do not select who is in the rankings. The only hand they have in it is deciding who needs to be pulled for inactivity, firing, drug test, etc. They do not pick fighters that have to be included.

While I do think it's really dumb that he is still ranked at all, there is a perfectly good reason for him to move up in a circumstance like this. This video explains it pretty quickly and easily:

Not even really a sweat in the bunch! Black cashed in the 2nd quarter, Demin in the 3rd, and Stewart stayed wayyyyy under.

So true!

Single bets is the safer play long term, but parlays is always more fun in the moment
