The UFC Lightweight Division in review

Wednesday, November 15th, 2006

Mike Goldberg mentioned this a little at TUF 4 finale, but the lightweight division is looking in as good shape as welterweight, if not better now with BJ dropping down.

Sean Sherk (Champ)
Spencer Fisher
Jens Pulver
Kenny Florian
Din Thomas (impressive at TUF 4 finale)
Joe Lauzon (don't care what anyone says he knocked out Little Evil and that counts for something in my mind)
BJ Penn
Melvin Guillard (impressive in his last outing)
Joe Stevenson
Yves Edwards (if he's still considered a contender)
Matt Serra (if he loses to GSP/Hughes which most think he will, i firmly believe he will drop down).

Thanks Pitbullpeeps for this.

David Loiseau has had his contract terminated by the UFC following his defeat to Mike Swick at UFC 63.

This is sad as he lost it ever since his fight with Franklin.
