I found the BJJ belt rankings:

Thing is with MMA you dont have to be elite at anything to be all round good. How many MMA fighters have had even one amateur bout let alone won any or performed in any championships? There is no grading in boxing. The whole grading system was bought in for commercial purposes to encourage people to attend and get memebership money.

This Wesley Tiffer has his own club and has trained in these sports for over 10 years. Thats fairly novicey really to say hes the same age as Mayorga but hes in shape and has trained in this full stop. Mayorga came in fat and wan by being tough. He should have been toyed with when on the ground but Tiffer was so wary of getting caught he didnt do alot. The one shot that Mayorga landed dropped him. All the things people were sayimg leading up to this bout and Mayorga has proven them wrong. Maybe he might be put on the contender style show that UFC does. Imagine the ratings watching him fight and listening to his bullshit
