my short list includes rampage or machida.

i don't want to see a marquardt beating or a maia massacre. even wanderlei silva who is supposed to come down won't be a challenge. i used to think gsp could give a good fight but he better stay at 170 or his ass will get handed to him also.

still can't believe ryo chonan beat anderson. although it was one of the best subs i ever seen.

who else you think could get give anderson some trouble???

I might be crazy but I don't count out Rashad HOWEVER only if he doesn't forget that he is a strong wrestler and not a boxer same with Rampage .

Anderson would easily make it past round 1 imo. Still rather see just how the Jones matchup would go down as opposed to Anderson brutalizing Rampage, Wandy, Rashad, Hendo ect

Roy Jones is totally washed up. I loved him back in the day but he is shot. AS would have a good shot at beating him.

I think GSP has a style that would give Silva trouble because he has the ability to take him down. Machida would be a good matchup but I'd like to see him fight Jackson. Jackson would stand with him and it'd be a very entertaining scrap. He wouldn't walk through him like he did Griffin.

Jones would destroy Silva in boxing. Silva won't fight Machida they train together and are pretty close. would be fun to see him fight GSP

I just want to see Silva actually tested... I'm not a fan of his and think Hendo could be the man to upset him at 185...

Silva is looking to cement a legacy in this sport, and debating whether or not Forrest was overrated or not overrated, I think he should fight the top guys.

Hey if he doesn't want to fight Lyoto...let him fight Brock or Mir. He did look worried on that scale getting down to 205... I've definitely seen smaller guys fighting at HW...

I'd love to see GSP but I don't think it will happen. That will be a bigger test than almost any LHW he could face.

Silva vs. CroCop
Silva vs. Kongo
Silva vs. Hardonk

would all be hugely entertaining, and actual challenges for Silva.




Well, maybe not Crocop.

I wanna see Silva vs Fedor. Silva vs Brock.

Silva Crocop would be awesome too.

Rampage wouldnt land a punch. Couture would get killed.

AS would be crazy to stand up w. Roy. He'd just have to get it down to the ground - fight over, right? What am I missing. A decent bjj blue belt could beat a boxer with no ground game.

i believe if he fights roy it was said to be a pure striker match. i'm not positive though.

Yeah he wants a boxing match with RJJ. Not MMA.
