How do you rank these featherweights currently?

UFC has these rankings:

2) Ortega
3) Zabit
4) KZ
5) Yair
9) Kattar
 
Zabit has earned his shot by now.

6-0 UFC
18-1 overall
on a 7 year (!) win streak
what else does he have to do???

Zombie ‍♀️ he’s dominated all of his recent competition. I know he took some Ls but as far as I am concerned his only 2 UFC losses were a flukes. Dislocating his shoulder and that miracle elbow by Yair, seriously what were the odds? He was beating Yair soundly and was very competitive with Aldo before those freak accidents. Zombie’s power and pressure are SUPER dangerous
 
Zombie
Zabit
Kattar
Yair
Ortega


Obviously this is simply based off of who I think the better fighters are, not based off of current accomplishments
 
2) Ortega
3) KZ

9) Kattar

But I would give Zabit the next title shot, just to shut his dilusional fans up, because imho he isn´t ready yet for a 5 round war, and it would set him back.

If I would be a fan of his I would like him to fight Yair next in a main event 5 rounder, because Yair has some cardio problems too, and maybe he would be able to learn in that fight and still maybe eek out a decision.
 
Also if you really look at Fabers resume there are some great wins and names on there:

Cruz
Mizugaki
Wineland
Assuncao
Jorgensen
Pulver x2
Bowles
Bibiano Fernandes
Pickett
McDonald
 
Zabit and KZ are at the top. Ortega loses to all of them

Aldo was dominating him ....how is that a fluke ?
 
Zabit imo .... Kz is awesome and I’d have no issues with him getting a shot

This goes along with what we were discussing earlier. A lot of these names are at BW, not FW. Faber is probably the best bantamweight contender, but not best FW contender.

Korean Zombie would eat him alive, Zabit's only got gas for two rounds.

I don't disagree. I'm just pointing out that Zabit is 18-1, 6-0 in the UFC and hasn't lost in exactly 7 years! Does he need to go 50-1 before he gets a TS? That's BS.

KZ is on a 2 win streak. Yes he is probably the more dangerous fighter but who has the better streak right now?

I would be fine with Zabit vs KZ for #1 contender.
