he was deff. overhyped

he won me over w/ the Aoki win, but hasnt really made a mark since then....

Ty for your honesty. The thing was if anything guys like Aoki and Kawajiri were more overhyped then Gilbert. I'm don't hate Gilbert, but he's not even a top 5 LW right now. Period/.

Melvin Guilliard!?? Is that guy considered a top 10 fighter now?

totally, he's considered that by alot of people, but rankings are opinions

melvin is top10 in my book,but in ufc, i think when you throw aoki,melendez,alverez etc....in, he gets bumped out

If Melvin ever learned a good wrestling defense or a somewhat decent bjj defense that dude could be a champion. I have started to become a fan of his, but he just needs to open up and maybe hit up another camp.

Man, it's a good thing you put that "Period/" there that way we know it's a fact and unarguable.
But just out of curiosity who it your top 5 LWs. Cause mine looks a little like this

#1 Benson Henderson
#2 Frankie Edgar
#3 Gray Maynard
#4 Nate Diaz
#5 Gilbert Melendez
Granted I know there are guys like Cerrone, Pettis, Guida (Who I think Gil wouldn't be able to keep off of him and beat), that are knocking at the top 5 door, but right now I think that is a pretty solid list there.

Because he doesn't fight in the UFC? I suppose you think Melvin Guillard would beat him? lol

lol @you defending Gilbert by using a non top 10 LW in Melvin.

There was a period when Frankie was champ that Gil seemed so dangerous and nasty, however after the Mas fight Gil has been looking kind of shitty.
