It appears that in the best case scenario Kirkland will be going away for 18 months (13 months from now as he's already served 5 months) We need to decide what we are going to do with him, drop him to pool, drop him altogether or keep the spot open. Kirkland is currently rated 7th on our rankings.

I say we wait till his actual sentencing. In theory he could be doing half that sentence in a half-way house allowing him to train & fight, meaning he would be eligible to stay within our rules. Waiting a few weeks on sentencing won't make any difference, there's nothing important on the horizon.

I'm with Jaz; I think we should wait, if he gets lucky there's a possibility he may fight before his year is up

[Violent Demise]

If he gets more than 18 months than he needs to be dropped. If he does get the 18, I say we leave him where he's at even if he hits the 1 year of inactivity. He's obviously going to need more time to get in shape

I vote for a drop to the pool.. if he does get the full sentence, it will more than likely mean we won't be seeing him in action for another 2 years.

I say we keep him where he is for now until his sentence is announced.

save the trouble and drop him all together....Give a guy still active a chance

That's my take on it, this division has one of the most active pools with lots of guys meriting their shots at the top 10.

Vote we wait until he's sentenced,exceeds one year inactive span we drop him from ranks and pool.Keep things flowing.

James Kirkland will remain where he is for now by a vote of 5 - 2 - 1
