MMA Top 10 Featherweights: Omigawa, Kanehara Belong

Michihiro OmigawaWe're 10 days away from a very important featherweight card at WEC 46, where three of the best five featherweights in the world will fight: Urijah Faber vs. Rafael Assuncao in a bout that should determine the No. 1 contender, and Mike Brown vs. Anthony Morrison in a bout that should give Brown a relatively easy win after the loss of his featherweight title.

But before we get too deep into that card, let's take a moment to re-shuffle our featherweight rankings in the wake of the New Year's Eve Dynamite 2009 card. Both Masanori Kanehara and Michihiro Omigawa had impressive victories on New Year's Eve, and as a result they've both moved into my featherweight Top 10, which is below.

Top 10 Featherweights in MMA
1. Jose Aldo
2. Mike Brown
3. Urijah Faber
4. Hatsu Hioki
5. Rafael Assuncao
6. Marlon Sandro
7. Manny Gamburyan
8. Josh Grispi
9. Masanori Kanehara
10. Michihiro Omigawa
