Since sherdog got their whole ranking thing up I've been thinking of another way to rank the fighters, and I'd like some input(their rankings do look right though, Silva=#1)

So far I'm doing three averaged categories, the the average of their sum.

1)Quality average:

-wins/fights to get a basic average for the opponent(5w 4L=.56)
-N/C:-.05
-noticable weight difference:-.1 if heavier, +.1 if lighter.
-loss=-.1
-decisive loss:-.1 extra(-.2 total)
-decisive win:+.1
-questionable loss(mezger vs arona type situation):+.1(no loss deduction)
-questionable win:-.1
Hope this makes sense.

2)Win average(record average, Silva is 21-3, so .875)

3)Finish average, finishes vs wins(Arona has 8 wins and 2 finishes, so .25)

Add the three up and get the final average. Can anyone help refine this?

Using this, 5 ranked lhweights.

1-Silva:q=.573
w=.875
f=.857
Total=.768

2-Q. Jackson:q=.439
w=.882
f=.800
Total=.707

3-Liddell:q=.720
w=.917
f=.45
Total=.696

4-Tito Ortiz=q=.609
w=.830
f=.600
Total=.679

5-Arona=q=.700
w=.889
f=.250
Total=.613

dude you got way too much time on your hands.

Yes. Yes I do.
