Jon Jones shoots to number one in pound for pound rankings

Top 5 pound for pound in mixed martial arts:

1. Jon Jones
Jon Jones rockets to the number one slot after Chris Weidman knocks out Anderson Silva. Jon Jones takes a humble approach and says he's not interested in becoming the number one guy by someone else losing, and wants to achieve that status through his own actions.
 
2. Georges St-Pierre
Georges St-Pierre's eight fight title defense streak of his UFC welterweight belt keeps him at the number two spot. His biggest test in years comes against Johny Hendricks at UFC 167.


 
3. Anderson Silva
After a shocking knockout loss to Chris Weidman at UFC 162, Anderson Silva drops to the number three slot in the pound for pound rankings.



4. Jose Aldo
Jose Aldo is a champion that few actually talk about, despite the fact that he's 22-1, hasn't lost since 2005, and is on a 15 fight win streak, and has four UFC featherweight title defenses.

5. Benson Henderson
Ben Henderson is a perfect 7-0 in the UFC and has defended his UFC lightweight belt three times.
