My P4P Top 10

Since lots of the high end fighters have fought recently and have decided to show my Top 10 in the P4P in MMA.

1. Anderson "The Spider" Silva (25-4)
Silva who had been criticized for his last two middleweight title fights silenced a lot of the critics by KO'ing Forrest Griffin with a right hand in the first round at UFC 101. It shows why he is at the top of the heap in MMA.
Future Bouts: vs Dan Henderson,
Future on P4P: He will stay at the top unless Hendo does something nobody in the UFC has been able to do yet and defeat Silva.

2. Georges "Rush" St. Pierre (19-2)
GSP has been destroying all welterweight competition that he has been placed against, and making it look easy. His last fight at UFC 100 vs Thiago Alves he fought the 5th round with a torn groin and controlled the round. The only reason he isn't at the top is of his loss at UFC 69 to Matt Serra.
Future Bouts: vs the winner of Mike Swick vs Martin Kampmann
Future on P4P: This may look like one of his dominations like against Trigg or Sherk, he staying in second spot unless Anderson Silva loses.

3. Fedor Emelianenko (30-1, 1 NC)
Fedor has long been on this list and has ruled with an iron fist. However due to the lack of fighting top end heavyweights, Fedor finds himself on a slippery slope of falling down the P4P rankings and will probably continue to fall as he has signed with Strikeforce who only have one guy that may even pose a slight problem in Alistair Overeem. Other than Overeem, there is nobody even close to be considered a Top 10, maybe even top 20 heavyweight to challenge Fedor with.
Future Bouts: TBD, Strikeforce has said he will fight sometime this fall.
Future on P4P: It looks like The Last Emperor will be heading down this list due to failure to take on high end competition. He may have made a grave mistake in not signing with the UFC.

4. Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida (15-0)
Machida has made a slow and steady rise up the ranks of the light heavyweight division and is still impossible to damage (Can you even recall the last time took a half decent punch?). Machida is methodical in his approach and is always figuring out ways to destroy people while he escapes without a scratch on him. I don't see him being dethroned for a while unless someone catches him with a lucky shot.
Future Bouts: It is rumored that he will be facing Mauricio "Shogun" Rua this fall for the title.
Future on P4P: He will likely take over the #3 spot if he gets through Rua and Fedor gets the soup can he seems so desperate to fight.

5. "The Prodigy" BJ Penn (14-5, 1 draw)
After Penn was pretty much humiliated by GSP at UFC 94, Penn rebounded with a RNC submission victory over Top 10 lightweight Kenny Florian. Penn once again showed why he is one of the best by returning to the division he was meant to conquer.
Future Bouts: Possible Diego Sanchez fight at unknown time right now.
Future on P4P: Probably staying still in this spot unless someone above him gets blown out in a bout.

6. Mike Thomas Brown (22-4)
Brown was pretty much an unknown commodity in the MMA world until he shocked the world by destroying Urijah Faber to claim the WEC Featherweight Title. Since then, Brown has looked even better in his fights and is willing to play the heel because they place him in fights where he either walks into the opponents backyard or is against a much more popular fighter.
Future Bouts: No advertised bouts at this time but it sure to be explosive.
Future on P4P: He is most likely going to stay in the same spot as long as he keeps on winning, the Top 5 is hard to crack.

7. Brian Bowles (8-0)
This guy performed a near miracle by defeating Miguel Torres in the first round by KO. However how do you argue with not having the guy on the list, he beat a guy who was on every prominent P4P Top 10 list. He has to be seen has a major player as much as some people don't like it.
Future Bouts: None known at this time but Torres should be on a short list to fight him again.
Future on P4P:One month ago he wouldn't have been on here, however his victory over Torres makes him much more legitimate for this list. He will probably stay in this spot unless he wows in another couple fights.

8. Miguel Torres (37-2)
Torres was on an incredible winning streak until Bowles stopped him, however his overall body of work keeps him on this list.
Future Bouts: None known right now but would like to see rematch with Bowles
Future on P4P: He may go down but if he gets right back on the horse and gets his title back he will be staying on the list.

9. Jon Fitch (19-3, 1NC)
Fitch has only had one loss since 2002 and that was to GSP. He isn't flashy, but he always gets the job done in the ring. He may approaching a rematch for the WW title but one would have to wonder what he could employ against GSP since he was so badly dominated last time.
Future Bouts: Speculated match at UFC 106 with Ricardo Almeida
Future on P4P: One of the steadiest fighters, he will be hard pressed to move up the rankings unless someone dethrones GSP.

10. Quinton "Rampage" Jackson (30-7)
Since Rampage has come to the UFC, Rampage has only faced high end competition (with the acception of Marvin Eastman). Rampage has defeated Liddell, Henderson, Wanderlei Silva, Jardine with only losing to Forrest Griffin. He is the TUF 10 coach and is facing Rashad Evans at the end of the year.
Future Bouts: Rashad Evans at a December PPV.
Future on P4P: Will have to win to stay in Top 10, a loss and there are many possible replacements for the spot.
