2nd best to Uetake?  Did Yianni win a silver olympic medal after So year and go thru career with only one loss, is that how he is 2nd?  

 just noticed you said "arguably" ... yea I'm arguing  

Did Uetake win 4 titles? I was thinking second best to Cael.

Did Cael win Olympic gold while in college?  I was thing Cael second to Uetake who never lost never challenged.

Think its kind've hard to bump Synder over Sanderson given he was living in Cael's basement.

Snyder wasn't Hodge worthy. Absolute world beater, literally, but didn't light up the scoreboard or get pins. Maybe if there was a weight class comparable to what he has won his eight world medals in then he would have racked up more points/techs instead of having to treat each match as a seven minute weightlifting session...
