Seriously? Ok I'm finally coming around to Kos being in the top 10 but it's all based on how well he's done in losses. Who has he beat? But Anthony "if you think I'm a WW, I've got a bridge to sell you" Johnson is supposedly going to finally fight at his natural weight class of LHW. And he lost to Rich Clementi.
Koz beat Diego, Johnson, a previously-ranked Paul Daley, and Matt Hughes. Johnson last competed at WW in October, so regardless of whether he blows up to 300 pounds, he'll still be eligible to be ranked in the division until then. But let's be honest here: At #15, he'll most likely be leapfrogged in a couple of weeks.
