I plan to do event previews and recaps each week, along with other random stuff I think people might find interesting. Let me know what you think, good or bad. Suggestions are welcome.

Explaining the Rating System (IV)
Here are the top fighters in each division. One oddity I'll mention is Robbie Lawler, who's only #7 WW. He just beat #3 Hendricks but it was a split decision, and he lost a unanimous decision to Hendricks not even a year ago. Generally, the winner of a fight comes out with the better rating, but roughly 5% of the time they don't, including about 25% of the time when the result is a split decision. This was one of those times. CCR gives Hendricks a 59% chance (-140) of winning the rubber match.
