Robert's Bio
My main focus here is MMA. I found bleacher report when searching for rankings of fighters in each division. I looked at some of the typical sites, but then in the search I stumbled upon an article here by Derek Bolender. I read his 5 part series on the top ranked fighters and really liked it. I felt the need to comment so I registered. After checking out the site a bit I realized this was a great place to air my opinions and receive feedback, as well as a great place to keep up with the news on upcoming fights and etc. I got hooked and have decided to stay. I'm an aspiring writer so it works out.

I just wrote an article that addresses the Bleacher Report Writer Ranking System, which has been a sore spot to some and an area of controversy to many of you on this site.
I think that it's an important issue that needs to be addressed within this community. Please give the article a read when you have the chance. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
