2007 IFL Individual Weight Class Standings
In order to appease the critics of the unique MMA team concept of the International Fight League, after the 2007 season is finished there will be individual Grand Prixs (GPs) to determine the best fighter of the IFL in each weight class. Like the team ranking system, the four fighters with the most wins will participate in a mini tournament to crown the champion of each weight class. Tiebreakers will be determined by a point system with KO/TKO/submission wins being awarded 10 points, unanimous decisions 7 points, majority decisions 5 points and 3 points for split decisions. If a tiebreaker is still needed, it will be determined by the fighter with the quickest victories.
^= This fighter has clinched a spot in the individual GP
**= In memory of Jeremy Williams who died during the 2007 year.
?= In purely a marketing move the IFL decided to pass Savant Young and award Bart Palaszewski the fourth spot in the GP in order to have the highly anticipated Palaszewski/ Horodecki rematch.

Famous quotes containing the words individual, weight and/or class:
“The words of the Constitution ... are so unrestricted by their intrinsic meaning or by their history or by tradition or by prior decisions that they leave the individual Justice free, if indeed they do not compel him, to gather meaning not from reading the Constitution but from reading life.”
—Felix Frankfurter (1882–1965)
“Prose on certain occasions can bear a great deal of poetry; on the other hand, poetry sinks and swoons under a moderate weight of prose.”
—Walter Savage Landor (1775–1864)
“The traveler to the United States will do well ... to prepare himself for the class-consciousness of the natives. This differs from the already familiar English version in being more extreme and based more firmly on the conviction that the class to which the speaker belongs is inherently superior to all others.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
