Now we get to possibly the most interesting of your rankings. First, when will you remove GSP for inactivity? Who has Johnson beat other than Brenneman? Why is Brenneman ranked but not Hendricks. Brenneman won a late replacement decision vs. Story who won a decision vs. Hendricks who KOed Brenneman and Hendricks has fewer losses than either. This is a truly interesting division because most of the established top 10 haven't faced the younger brigade on their way up.
According to the eligibility requirements GSP will be removed on 4/30/12.
Johnson has other wins, but his rank is based on his win over Brenneman.
Hendricks is really tricky. Of the triangle you described Hendricks win over Brenneman was the least recent. I also happen to think it was a questionable stoppage, but that's a very minor consideration. But that leaves Hendricks sitting right below Story, who is at #10.
