I was having a debate today about Diego Sanchez and whether he is an elite fighter or not.  I happen to believe he is and a few set backs don't change that.  He has changed camps now and is back to Team Jackson which I believe is the best thing for him currently.  So I guess the real questions is what actually makes a fighter elite.  Is it the man who holds the belt?  Is it your record, ranking, or the competition you have beat?  Some may argue that even getting into the UFC would make you elite among thousands of hungry up and coming fighters.  What do you guys think?
