Time To Move Mike Brown

Come on people, Mike Brown is no longer a top-ten Featherweight. I don't know what happened to him, but the last year has not been kind. Time to update those rankings!

Agreed... but FYI there are a lot of people who probably ranked Mike Brown, but then might not be regular, frequent Tapology users.  So Brown will probably be stuck high in the rankings for a while.

Soon we're adjusting how the consensus rankings get calculated, so that old & stale rankings from users who are not actively maintaining them don't mess things up.

I think the 2 Urijah Faber wins are still huge so it helps him out a lot. Not to mention this last loss came just 3 weeks after a close loss to Nunes. I had Nunes in my top 15 but  and Brown at # 3 prior to the Nunes loss, what hurts Brown is that I didn't have Yahya ranked at all in the top 15. So losing to Nunes dropped Brown out of top 5 and Yahya which was a worse loss put him just barely outside the top 10. Hopefully he can adjust and get back some wins. 

I think Mike Brown needs to go against his own stubborn will and take some time off fighting. After each loss he keeps taking fights ASAP to try and erase the thought of losing. Perhaps even a sports psychologist would help him alot as it did GSP. One way or another i think he just needs a mental and physical break from fighting, regroup, and come back strong in 6 months to see what happens.

Hate to say it but Mike Brown might just be past his prime.  And on that note I need to go move him from #2 to somewhere much worse.
