Re: MMA Discussion Thread
No one really deserves a shot against Silva, they should have made weidman/bisping for the title shot. Either way, Silva humbles both. I want to see bisping toyed with if they fight, it will be so nice to see him get murked again.
I also updated the UFC fantasy thread, I don't even know if Rockhead is around anymore, but I would like to keep it going.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
I think Weidman will possess a great challenge for Silva. Anderson struggled with Chael's wrestling, and Weidman is also a top wrestler. But the main difference, is that Weidman has good Jiu Jitsu to back it up.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
I don't think Anderson will have any issues with Weidman. He stops him within 2.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
If Weidman tries to walk Silva down like Sonnen tried to do, he will get suffer the same fate. If he tries to stand up with him and set up a take down, silva will figure out is stance/footwork and Weidman will suffer the same fate as Franklin(X2),Griffin,Belfort,Henderson,Newton, and Bonnar.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
I think Slava beats him, but Weidman is improving in every fight. I don't think Silva walks over him like you all seem to think.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
I really do want to see Chris Weidmen vs. Silva. He's the biggest threat to Silva's title at this point. Great wrestling, jiu jitsu's solid and striking is pretty good. It'll be hard, but Weidmen looks hungry for that title, and and I can see him beating Silva if they fight down the road.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
Gunnar Nelson is a fucking beast on the ground.
I realize this isn't exactly breaking news to anyone who knows anything about him, but it's true.
And Tom Watson is getting outwrestled. This is my surprized face......

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
What a great night of fights.
Top to bottom, one of the best cards all year.
Manuwa/Kingsbury was something else.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
Wish King Mo was still in the UFC, Muhammad Lawal, Rashad Evans, Rampage Jackson, & Jimi Manuwa all in the UFC LHW Division.
Next fight should be Struve-Barnett.
