Quick Notes:

-#1 Lyoto Machida will be facing #4 Shogun Rua at UFC 104.

-#2 Rampage Jackson announced his retirement, but I believe that will be short lived.  However, if he doesn't get something scheduled soon...he'll begin to slip in the rankings.

-#3 Rashad Evans could be facing #7 Thiago Silva at UFC 108.

-#9 Antonio Rogerio Nogueira will be making his UFC debut at UFC 106 against #8 Luis Cane.

-#10 Rich Franklin(formerly #5) slips down to the tenth spot after getting knocked out by Vitor Belfort at UFC103.  Which caused everyone below him to slide up a spot.
