Updated Fighter Rankins (5-5-13)

Team Alpha Male had a huge month of April.

April was an insane month for fight fans.  From Bellator's season finale to the UFC doing shows 4 weeks in a row on Fuel, FX, Fox, and PPV it was a fight fans' dream.  Here is my latest rankings which are independent of anyone's opinions except my own.  I also stopped being lazy and added the previous ranking of the fighters in parentheses to the right of their name.
