Najpoznatiji MMA protal Sherdog.com poznat je po svojim Top 10 ljestvicama najboljih boraca, koje objavljuje još od početka prošlog desetljeća.

 

Zna se tko su najbolji borci današnjice, no kako su izgledale ljestvice prije točno 10 god? Teškom kategorijom još je vladao veliki trojac Fedor, Minotauro, Barnett i Cro Cop, poluteškom Wanderlei Silva, srednjom Dan Henderson, a BJ Penn je drmao u čak dvije kategorije (velter i lakom). U pero diviziji prvi je bio Alexandre Nogueira. Od svih spomenutih danas su na ljestvicama samo Minotauro i Henderson.
